# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:27 dakota ixopo: Of course, I'm South African ;)
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:26 ixopo dakota very good idea
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:25 dogmatic69 ye... i seen some things that do not alow _ or - or ' ' that is irritating
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:23 dakota I know I'll be really irritated if I need to rename my file to upload it because the name is too long
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:23 dakota and twitter isn't the same thing as a uploading a file
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:23 dakota )
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:23 dakota I don't twitter
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:22 dogmatic69 dakota: twiter life in 140 chars ?
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:22 dakota you shouldn't limit what the user can put it, only what is displayed
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:21 dakota or something like that'
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:21 dakota so, it will show something like MyFile..., and on hover the title box jumps up with MyFileWithLongName.doc
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:21 dakota and add a title attribute that has the full name
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:21 dakota well, truncate the file name
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:20 ixopo thx 4 your help again
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:20 ixopo i have to find an other solution
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:19 ixopo so actually due to Design Reasons, which is stupid
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:19 ixopo file name is in the box
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:19 ixopo i made fancy little boxes in the CMS which you can Add with Ajax
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:18 dakota Still, why do you want to limit the length?
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:17 ixopo for me
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:17 ixopo -(
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:17 ixopo would have been the easiest way for men
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:17 dakota maximum it can be is 255 characters
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:17 dakota why do you want to limit the file name lenght?
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:16 dakota hence the 'array to string' error
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:16 dakota you are passing it a file array
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:16 ixopo ?
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:16 ixopo i have to extract file name
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:16 dakota maxLength is for strings
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:15 ixopo lol
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:15 dakota ixopo: Its fairly obvious what the problem is
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:15 ixopo hmmm
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:15 ixopo hmm
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:15 swordz Actually, it's expectig text, and you're passing a file?
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:14 ixopo dakota u have any idea ?
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:14 ixopo -(
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:14 swordz OK, that was my best guess.
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:13 ixopo swordz i changed the name to testcase now http://bin.cakephp.org/view/301974892 still getting the same error Array to string conversion [CORE/cake/libs/validation.php, line 598]
# Oct 22nd 2009, 05:10 swordz You need it to go 'I don't have that rule, lets check the conents of this array'
