i had exactly the same problem and solved it by removing empty lines
in the beforeFilter() of the controller responsible for saving items.
In my case its very specific you could apppend your logic to make it
more universal.
p.s. im not sure about the following line in your example, because im
not sure if !null is defined in php
if (array_search(!null, $record)) $validRecords[] = $record;
maybe im wrong but i dont think this filters your data correctly.
--- in my app i use:
class InvoicesController extends AppController {
function beforeFilter() {
if (!empty($this->data)) {
// remove empty forms from data
if (isset($this->data['InvoicesItem'])) {
$data = array();
foreach ($this->data['InvoicesItem'] as $row) {
if (!empty($row['quantity']) ||
!empty($row['price'])) {
$data[] = $row;
}
}
if (empty($data)) {
unset($this->data['InvoicesItem']);
}
else {
$this->data['InvoicesItem'] = $data;
}
}
}
}
...
}
