Hi Jean

since our database is using European date format, I've installed your TransformDateInput plugin. I've seen that it has a hook for add_records and it works perfectly for the add_record form.

I've been wondering if the plugin could be "enriched" so that it also works for the modify_record form Wink. I see the following difference to the add_record hook: in the beginning, the date format stored in the database has to be converted to the European format (the date must be displayed in the correct format on the modify_record form -> <%GT::Date::date_transform($datefieldname,'%yyyy%-%mm%-%dd%','%dd%.%mm%.%yyyy%')%>) before it will be submitted back to the database and converted again (after the record modification). This means that the plugin should be able to do a two-way operation instead of a one-way operation. It would be nice if the plugin could handle both ways for the modify_record hook (otherwise, I would have to use the code mentioned above directly in the template).

Thanks for your help,
Oliver
