Hi there. Cake Newbie with a newbie question. Trying out the validation described in the Data Validation section of the Cake Cookbook (http://manual.cakephp.org/view/125/data-validation). I set up a simple validation to test: require email field to be well-formed email address based on the 'email' validation rule (see below):
<pre> class User extends AppModel { // name model var $name = 'User'; // simple validation rules example var $validate = array('email' => 'email'); } </pre> When I submit a new user with a bad email address via my "register" form, I get no feedback telling me the address is invalid, and the record submits successfully to the database. I've also tested this minLength, maxLength, between, and alphaNumeric validation rules to no avail. None of my logs show anything to indicate why the validation step is being skipped. The only "validation" errors I've gotten so far have been directly from the database (MySQL) when I've tried to submit a duplicate record (sql error 1062). What might I be doing wrong to cause the validation function to fail? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
