thanks chetan,... thanks jsundquist,....
the problem is solved,... this is what I come up with,... in case anyone
wonder,...
in my Model:
<?php
class Invitation extends AppModel {
var $name = 'Invitation';
var $validate = array(
'user_id' => array(
'rule' => 'notEmpty',
'message' => 'user must be valid',
),
'email' => array(
'mustNotEmpty'=>array(
'rule' => 'notEmpty',
'message'=> 'Please enter to email(s)',
'last'=>true
),
'mustBeEmail'=> array(
'rule' => 'validateEmails',
'message'=> '',
'last' => true
)
),
);
function validateEmails($check)
{
$emails = array_values($check);
$key = array_keys($check);
$emails = explode(',', $emails[0]);
foreach($emails as $email) {
$email = trim($email);
if(!empty($email)) {
$valid = Validation::email($email);
if(!$valid) {
$this->validationErrors[$key[0]][0]= 'You have an error
near '.$email;
break;
}
}
}
return true;
}
function afterDelete()
{
}
}
?>
and in a controller:
$raw_emails = explode(',', $this->data['Invitation']['emails']);
foreach($raw_emails as $email)
{
$email = trim($email);
$regex =
'/^[_a-z0-9-]+(\.[_a-z0-9-]+)*@[a-z0-9-]+(\.[a-z0-9-]+)*(\.[a-z]{2,3})$/';
if (preg_match($regex, $email))
$emails[] = $email;
}
THANK YOU guys ALL !
Salute
Chris
