You can use a PHP form plugin and set on the event "onBeforeLoad".

Can you explain what you are trying to do?

The hook you'd need would be 'onLoad', not 'onBeforeLoad'. The onBeforeLoad runs before the form data is loaded. The onLoad runs after, so form data is in $formModel->data[].

However ... if you explain what you are trying to achieve, I might be able to save you some effort ... if it's to do with the repeat group thing in your other posts ... what you might be thinking of doing may not work.

yes, i was thinking in other way to solve, as you say, "the repeat group in your other posts"

i posted for you... all the explanation in a new post as you order me.

I presume you were thinking of somehow pre-populating repeat groups in the onLoad plugin, but as I explained in a previous answer, for a new form, any repeat handling has to be done in JavaScript on the page.
