Re: Validation Help
The answer I found was...
no need for allowEmpty or required in notempty rule (that I can see).
Have to do the following to get both models to validate:
$this->Model1->set($this->data)
$this->Model1->Model2->set($this->data) // I would think this line is
all that would be needed, but you need both set statements
then:
if($this->Model1->validates(array('fieldList' => array('field names
for model1))) && $this->Model1->Model2->validates(array('fieldList' =>
array('field names for model 2'
If there is a better way, I'd love to learn!
Thanks Russ

Re: Validation Help
Here are my model rules..
'tin' => array(

'notempty' => array(

'message' => 'Please provide a Tax ID for your
organization.',

operations
),
'ssn' => array(
'rule' => array('ssn', null),
'message' => 'The Tax ID must be 9 characters

'last' => true
),
),
'name' => array(
'notempty' => array(
'rule' => array('notempty'),
'message' => 'Please provide a Legal

'allowEmpty' => false,
'required' => true,

'address' => array(

'rule' => array('notempty'),
'message' => 'Please enter one line for
address',
'allowEmpty' => false,
'required' => true,

Is it being caused by the required/allowEmpty combo?

This is driving me crazy.
User Model:
var $validate = array(
'username' => array(
'usernameRule-1' => array(
'rule' => array(
'notEmpty'),
'message' => 'Please choose a Username',
'required' => true,
'allowEmpty' => false,
'last' => true),
'usernameRule-2' => array(
'rule' => array(
'minLength', 8),
'message' => 'Username must be 8 characters or more',
'required' => true,
'allowEmpty' => false,
'last' => true)
)
);
View:
create('User', array('controller' => 'user', 'action' =>
'registration'));?> input('User.username');?> end('Submit');?>
Controller:
function registration()
{
if (!empty($this->data)) {
if ($this->User->validates()) {
$this->Session->setFlash('All valid.');
} else {
$errors = $this->User->invalidFields();
debug($errors);
$this->Session->setFlash('There was an error signing up.
Please, try again.');
}
}
}
I removed everything but 1 field.
No matter what I enter all I get is Please choose a Username. Enter 100
characters and same message.
$errors returns:
I have abcdefghijklmnop as a username, more than 8, not emptydoes not
matter what I enter it always the same thing.
Array
(
[username] => Please choose a Username
)
Please someone, anyone letmeknow what I am doing wrong?
Thanks

Hi Dave, you might check your spelling real quick: minLenght should be
minLength. That's probably why your length validation is always passing.

Re: validation help
arif's sugggestion didn't work either
Dr. Loboto I'm not sure how that will help since the data is saving to
the database correctly. When I put in an empty field it saves the
empty field instead of outputting an error message. When I put in a
category name it saves it.
Gwoo #2: But the data is saving when I have data in there doesn't
that indicate the form is sending correctly?
Gwoo #1: pr outputs AppModel Object so I'm assuming if it printed
Category Object then I would have found it. This seems to be the
error. How can I fix this? Is this an inflection problem with
category and categories?
Thanks for all the help.

Re: validation help
Output $this->data in controller and check actual data you try to
save.

Re: validation help
Are you sure that cake is finding your model? pr($this->Category); inside your controller. If you see an AppModel instance rather than a Category instance then you know cake is unable to find the model. Also, make sure that the form input is correctly sending the fields you are expecting. If you are missing 'category' inside of $this->data ['Category'] then the validation will not be checked. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.

Re: validation help
I have tried various combinations for validation still nothing is
working.
This is my last attempt and it's still not validating an empty field,
I still get an empty database value (new id no content - instead of an
error message)
array(
'rule' => 'alphaNumeric',
'required' => true
)
);
}
