oops, that should read: function beforeValidate(){
// assume $action is set to current action. if (isset($this->validateArray[$action])) { // reassign the $validate variable. $this->validate = $this->validateArray[$action]; } } The beforeValidate() can be put into the appModel to apply to all your models. This way your controllers never have to worry about any of this validation stuff, as it should be. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
