ive modified the code in the controller so that it can set the
parameters before create or update
like so
private function processTax(sfWebRequest $request) {
$price = $request->getParameter('price');
$mystock = new Stock();
$taxRate = $mystock->calculateTax($price);
$request->setParameter('vat', $taxRate);
$request->setParameter('amount_with_vat', ($taxRate+$price));
}
public function executeCreate(sfWebRequest $request) {
$this->processTax($request);
$this->form = $this->configuration->getForm();
$this->stock = $this->form->getObject();
$this->processForm($request, $this->form);
$this->setTemplate('new');
}
public function executeUpdate(sfWebRequest $request) {
$this->processTax($request);
$this->stock = $this->getRoute()->getObject();
$this->form = $this->configuration->getForm($this->stock);
$this->processForm($request, $this->form);
$this->setTemplate('edit');
}
i dont get any error when i do this but the processTax function does
not seem to execute since i
dont find the values in the db. Any ideas?
