Without using $form->error, cake will default to displaying the error
unless you set 'error' => 'false' so you do not have to use $form-
>error.
You can then define the error message in your model:
var $validate = array(
'firstname' => array(
'rule' => 'alphaNumeric',
'required' => true,
'allowEmpty' => false,
'message' => 'First name is required and only
alphanumeric characters are allowed'
),
'lastname' => array(
'rule' => 'alphaNumeric',
'required' => true
)
);
Alternatively, you can set 'error' => 'false' and return from your
controller an array of all errors, if any, using $this->Profile-
>invalidFields();
