Add this to your model validation (assuming the field you are checking is
called 'dob'):
'dob' => array(
'inRange' => array(
'rule' => 'isAgeInAcceptedRange',
'message' => 'You must be between the ages of 18 and 80.'
)
),
Then add this function to your model:
function isAgeInAcceptedRange($check) {
list($Y,$m,$d) = explode("-", $check['dob']);
$userAge = ( date("md") < $m.$d ? date("Y")-$Y-1 : date("Y")-$Y );
if ( ($userAge >= 18) && ($userAge <= 80) ):
return true;
else:
return false;
endif;
}
