Re: get action in beforeValidate?
OK, I just came across a link to the on info in the cookbook (that table of contents needs an overhaul) but it looks like it only works with single rules per field. Bummer. And GreyCells gives the lowdown on the options array here: http://teknoid.wordpress.com/2008/09/22/setmerge-and-dynamic-validation-rules/ I'm still wondering if I can get the current action in beforeValidate() though. Otherwise, I guess I have to pass something in the options from the controller.

I know there's an on key that may be used but I can't find anything online about how to use it properly. Anyone know where it's documented? I came across this thread, linked from the FAQ: http://groups.google.com/group/cake-php/browse_frm/thread/e2e840434c733cfa/0d03101191f5674a I like the method worked out by keymaster but left unsaid is how to know what the present action is. Nothing in the source jumps out at me. Also, I'm curious about beforeValidate() options param. Once again, a mysterious options array is available with nary a word on using it. :-( ps: note that keymaster's beforeValidate() is missing the return boolean. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups CakePHP group.

Re: get action in beforeValidate?
By current action, do you mean the controllers action thats calling the validation? Ive looked and tried before, theres no way to do it unless you hack it up yourself. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups CakePHP group.

Re: get action in beforeValidate?
Yes, that's what I meant. After poking around in the source for awhile I agree that it doesn't look possible.
