how can i apply custom filters on inputs in validation?
in CI, for example, we use 'prep_url' to add 'http://' in the beginning of input string
i want to do somethings like this, for example, converting this string:
'i am a string'
to
'i-am-a-string'
thanks

You can extend validation class : http://fuelphp.com/docs/classes/validation/validation.html#methods

i want to do somethings like this, for example, converting this string:
'i am a string'
to
'i-am-a-string'

If you want to use this for page titles ( in url ) I can suggest you to use Inflector::firendly_title() method

my problem is not converting first string to second
the problem is: how can i do this automatically?

So... Do you want to apply automatically a validation to input fields?? Have you tried to extend Form class?

no
i want to apply some changes on input strings automatically
i dont think extending Form class be useful
i need to apply this changes on custom fields so i think i should do this using validation
i need a way exactly like 'prep_uri' in CI validation
