Events are the fragements of PHP code executed before or after
record was added, edited, deleted, when new user registers etc.
Therefore events allow you to define some actions that will be
activated when certain conditions are met.
Here are a few examples of some common events:
-
send an email which contains the data from a new record, or
shows changes to an existing record;
-
save data in another table;
-
check record uniqueness;
-
show related to current record info.
Events can be divided into global and table events. Global events are not specific to any table
or view. Table events belong to a
table or a view.
