# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:33 dogmatic69 sphereweb: that is where routing comes in handy
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:33 brookshire The add form view in /app/views/blog/add.thtml
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:33 Ceeram brookshire: what its your point?
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:33 brookshire in one of their examples, they perform validation in the controller!
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:33 sphereweb dogmatic69: Because my website currently has the conatct page as domain.com/Contact/ and if i use /views/contacts/ i would end up with domain.com/ContactS/
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:33 arz Ceeram, so if there is no save method = no validation?
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:32 Ceeram you are getting data from kinda datasource
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:32 brookshire Ceeram: http://book.cakephp.org/view/318/Data-Validation
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:32 Ceeram arz you vallidate data to save in a datasource
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:32 dogmatic69 they dont... they make darkness industry standard
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:32 Ceeram using 99 developers?
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:32 arz Ceeram, ok, just wanted the zen way :-)
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:31 dogmatic69 Ceeram: how does m$ change a light bulb?
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:31 Ceeram arz just chekc if the data is set then
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:31 dogmatic69 brookshire: thats right you can be like m$ if it dont work like it should make a new standard
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:30 arz Ceeram, notEmpty , simple ... huh
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:30 Ceeram brookshire: give me an example then please
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:30 dogmatic69 sphereweb: why you using pages_controller for the form, just put it in views/contacts/
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:30 Ceeram arz: what validation do you need on the incoming dara?
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:29 brookshire not all validation belongs in the model
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:29 Ceeram you can call validates() from model, or controller or even component but the validation still is in the model
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:29 Ceeram brookshire: form a company calling validates()? validates() still is a model method
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:28 sphereweb btw i luv CakePHP :)
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:28 arz sorry for that question , but does this code look like pure model, or just a set of functions that return output?
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:28 sphereweb what could be the problem and how would i attempt to debug it? :)
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:27 sphereweb I have a contact view (/views/pages/contact.ctp) where i have an ajax form that is created by $ajax->form(array('type'=>'post','options'=>array('url'=>array('controller'=>'contacts','action'=>'add'),'update'=>'ajaxResponse','indicator' => 'ajaxInd'))); When i submit it, i receive as ajax response the same page (/views/pages/contact.ctp). It seems the request doesnt get to my action URL /contact/add
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:27 dogmatic69 brookshire: have you heard of MVC
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:27 brookshire but, if you can make it work in the model, that is probably more appropriate
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:26 brookshire i think it's perfectly fine to do validation in components using invalidate
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:25 dogmatic69 arz: no validation in components
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:25 arz Ceeram, well ok, this code produces the output i want, i can move it to be component, create another model, try to validate there ... well i'm lost =(
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:25 dogmatic69 ACTION hands Ceeram a beer
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:24 dogmatic69 jbcrawford: that normally happens when you explain it properly
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:24 Ceeram then bring me a beer within 5 minutes from now
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:24 jbcrawford dogmatic69: I have a model with a habtm relationship, I am creating a search and I need to limit the results to specific items in the relationship....actually I think I just answered my question
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:24 dogmatic69 Ceeram: yes anything
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:23 Ceeram dogmatic69: anything?
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:23 brookshire jbcrawford: yes, as long as you are not trying to query the join table
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:22 dogmatic69 jbcrawford: anything is possible, what do you want to do exactly?
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:22 jbcrawford is it possible to query a model with a condition for a specific item in a habtm relationship?
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:21 dogmatic69 sphereweb: <sphereweb> it has been a while since i didn't use IRC :) that is more like you have been here all the time and its been long since you werent on IRc
