I've got it by creating a custom class with a class method:
class Utils
def self.strip(value)
value.strip! if String === value
end
end
Then in before_update_save() and before_create_save() I call:
Utils.strip(user.phone)
When I get some time I'll try to make a feature for active scaffold.
Thanks a lot.
