I followed along with the blog tutorial and got that working with out a problem. Now I'm modifying the blog tutorial for my own purposes since the basic technique was the same for this particular part of the project but now the fields are not validating. When I had it as notEmpty it still posted an empty entry to the database. And with it alphaNumeric it's still posting an empty entry.
Can I get some help? Model: <?php class Category extends AppModel { var $name = 'Category'; var $validate = array( 'category' => 'alphaNumeric' ); } ?> Controller: <?php class CategoriesController extends AppController { var $name = 'Categories'; function index() { $this->set('categories', $this->Category->find('all')); } function add() { if (!empty($this->data)) { if ($this->Category->save($this->data)) { $this->Session->setFlash('Your category has been saved.'); $this->redirect(array('action' => 'index')); } } } function edit($id = null) { $this->Category->id = $id; if (empty($this->data)) { $this->data = $this->Category->read(); } else { if ($this->Category->save($this->data)) { $this->Session->setFlash('Your category has been updated.'); $this->redirect(array('action' => 'index')); } } } function delete($id) { $this->Category->del($id); $this->Session->setFlash('The category with id: '.$id.' has been deleted.'); $this->redirect(array('action'=>'index')); } } ?> View: <!-- File: /app/views/categories/add.ctp --> <h1>Add Post</h1> <?php echo $form->create(''); echo $form->input('category'); echo $form->end('Save Category'); ?> Thanks in advance. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
