Overview

Fix BackOffice Membership forms getPriceSetID() to be standard

Before

We have been encouraging people to switch from accessing 'any property or method they can find' to ones designated as supported for external use. One of these is getPriceSetID() but on the back office membership form this function is non-standard and non-public

After

The methods are standard & public

Technical Details

The function is called both from a postProcess() and from a formRule() function - we have hit a couple of gotchas sharing some between these which I have also addressed.

We now recommend the use of getSubmittedValue() and getSubmittedValues() to retrieve the data the user has submitted. These functions do a bit of extra handing around money & also permit forms in multi-form flows to access the submitted values even through the values were submitted on a different form in the flow.

However, the values aren't loaded into the QuickForm array until validate has been run - so up until that point we need to access the submitValue() function - the contents of which differ in that that they are basically raw post & not yet validated.

But all that is a lot to know - a developer calling getSubmittedValue() wants to get the value the user submitted with an appropriate level of processing without having to do something different at different points of the submission. I did add an extra purify in there cos it seemed like good practice & I'd rather remove it later than add it later but I don't see it having any real impact in the way this is currently used.
