Re: Help With Validation Question
I forgot to mention, you need to set $this->Model->id before you call
saveField

Re: Help With Validation Question
Sounds like you are creating a new entry instead of saving the data from the
current one.
Try using $this->Model->saveField('field_name','value');
So in your controller check which field they have field out, and call
saveField for only that field.

Help With Validation Question
I am attempting to allow user to edit their url and email, so i load the
form up and leave it blank since both have to be unique if its filled with
their original info and edit 1 field the other will fail because it says
email / or url already exists since they only changed one. So save the form
and the field they did not edit is now empty in the db. If i try the
if(empty($this->data['User']['email'])
{
$this->data['User']['email']) = $user['User']['email'];
]
it fails because it says its already used
I tried thinking how to do this and every way i try fails. The form has 2
fields, url and email. Validation is set so they are not required, allow
empty since they may only be changing 1 or the other but unique so whatever
they change it to can not be in the db already and valid url or email for
the field.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Dave

I posted the code for the view, model, controller in a reply to my original.
But I did get it all figured out.

Please show the code that delivers the input data to the model, so that we
may be convinced that the data you receive from the form is also the data
sent to the model for validation :) Also possibly the view code for the

RE: Help with validation
I mean when I hit submit the form gets sent and comes back invalid but
nothing is marked as invalid (even when I leave it completely empty). Then
same page without refreshing or anything just hit submit on that same
returned form it comes back with errors. Even if I have letters / numbers in
the field it says Can not be empty.
Just weird.

Firstly, you are trying very simple validation so there must be something
very simple wrong with it that's easily fixed when identified. Have you got
validation working anywhere else in your app?
When you say hit submit and nothing do you mean it shows the form again and
is this because it has failed to validate?
You maybe want to echo $this->validationErrors in your view to see what
errors you are getting, it may be that you are getting the errors but
something is up with the form field naming that is stopping the automagic
working.
In my controllers I personally go for the following approach rather than
validating first as save does that for you.
if($this->Model->save($this->data)) {
// Validated and saved, save a flash message and redirect to desired page
} else {
// Failed, show form again with errors }

Help with validation
No matter what I try I cant get validation to work properly. (i am only
trying to get it working so please no comments about numbers in a firstname
:)
simple validation on 1 field:
'firstname' => array(
'firstnameRule-1' => array(
'rule' => 'alphaNumeric',
'message' => 'Only alphabets and numbers allowed',
'required' => true,
'last' => true),
'firstnameRule-2' => array(
'rule' => array('minLength', 8),
'message' => 'Minimum length of 8 characters',
'last' => true),
'firstnameRule-3' => array(
'rule' => 'notEmpty',
'message' => 'Please enter your first name.',
'last' => true),
),
When the page renders Firstname: is bold as its required.
Hit submit and nothing...hit submit again(without refreshing the page) and
then "Only alphabets and numbers allowed".
I tried if $this-user->validates();
save($this->data, true $fields)
but nothing seems to be going as planned.
What am i doing wrong here?
Thanks,
Dave

Help with validation rule in behaviour
Hi guys,
I am completely stuck and cannot figure out what I am doing wrong.
I have created a custom Upload behaviour but I cannot get the
following validation rule to work.
Just after the setup function in the behaviour I call this function
_create_validation_rule(&$model){} which sets the validation rules,
for my suprise nothing happens. When I call the function from inside
the beforeValidate function it works, but Cake display the following
error:
Warning (2): preg_match() expects parameter 2 to be string, array
given [CORE\cake\libs\validation.php, line 877]
When I checked the validation.php and pr ( ) the second paramenter it
showed the file array:
Array
(
[filename] => Array
(
[name] =>
[type] =>
[tmp_name] =>
[error] => 4
[size] => 0
)
)
I must be doing something wrong somewhere, just don't know where and
how to fix it.
Any help would very much appreciated.
Many thanks in advance.
Cheerss
