hi,
As earlier said u are sending the form data to a
different page...
function thank_you()
{
> if( !empty($this->data) )
> {
> $this->User->create();
> if( $this->User->save($this->data) )
> {
> }
> else
> {
> $this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'),null,true);
> }

> else

> $this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'),null,true);
> }

Now in cakePHP the validation works when u call save.
so if if( $this->User->save($this->data) ) is false it means that ur form
has errors
So what u r doing is that u are redirecting the page when there are form
erros.
So give any redirect page in the else condition it will automatically come
to ur form page.
Also there is no need for $this->User->create();
Think u got the point.
