Re: how to abort save?
cakephp101, You don't have to save the records that would put a blank row in your table. What validation rules are you using now? You can set some of your fields as 'notEmpty' or 'required'. You stated you are using saveAll (); are you aware of the validate option for saveAll()? http://teknoid.wordpress.com/2008/08/01/practical-use-of-saveall-part-1-working-with-multiple-models/ For more information on validation see the links I posted earlier. -teh On May 25, 8:32 pm, cakephp101 valenzuela...@gmail.com wrote: because i have a list of the timesheet in a table and it looks odd to have a blank row in the table.

cakephp101, I think you should start checking out the section of the book on validation - http://book.cakephp.org/view/125/Data-Validation Specifically, I think you want to read this section - http://book.cakephp.org/view/740/notEmpty -teh On May 22, 12:15 am, cakephp101 valenzuela...@gmail.com wrote: yes, i mean fields in a table. i'm doing a timesheet for a payroll. the start sched, end sched, time in and time out of the employee are the input. that means i have 4 fields. i have 5 rows of those 4 fields. the 5 rows is equal to 5 days because 1 row is equal to 1 day. when i only put input in 4 of the rows and 1 form is empty, it will still save the empty fields with a null value in my database. i'm saving it through saveAll. how can i abort the save for the fields that are empty? i think it should be done in beforeSave but i don't know how. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups CakePHP group.
