[TYPO3-english] Hook for tt_news: processDatamap_afterDatabaseOperations

[Bert Hiddink [BENDOO e-work solutions]]

Hello,

I am writing a hook for tt_news and using the core function 
"processDatamap_afterDatabaseOperations"

...

	function processDatamap_afterDatabaseOperations($status, $table, $id, 
&$fieldArray, &$reference) {

			$title = htmlspecialchars(strip_tags($fieldArray[$confVid['Field']]));
			$description = 
htmlspecialchars(strip_tags($fieldArray[$confVid['FieldDescription']]));
			$tags = htmlspecialchars(strip_tags($fieldArray[$confVid['FieldTags']]));
			$video = 
htmlspecialchars(strip_tags($fieldArray[$confVid['FieldVideo']]));
			$this->blip($title,$description,$tags,$video,$confVid);
		}

	}
...


Strangly enough, the vars $title, $description and $tags do return me 
the values of the fields 'title', 'bodytext' and 'keywords' from the 
tt_news-table (these are mapped through Page TSconfig). However, the var 
$video which is mapped to 'news_files' of tt_news, does not return 
anything. The procedure I followed for all vars was the same.

Is there some restriction to certain fields for 
"processDatamap_afterDatabaseOperations" or for &$fieldArray?
The field "news_files" is just an ordinary text-field in the DB. No clue 
why this does not work.

Any ideas? Many thanks in advance!

Regards,
Bert
