# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:39 dogmatic69 brookshire: what does firebug say
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:38 Ceeram ok lets put it other wise, could you do the same in just the model, and could you do the same in just the controller without calling User model
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:38 brookshire arz: i don't think it matters much if you force the validation in the controller or model, but other disagree obviously
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:38 arz ok ...
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:38 sphereweb dogmatic69: and back to my initial issue with the ajax form why returning same page as response?
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:38 arz so, i'm supposed to do validation by hand inside controller
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:38 Ceeram yes from controller indeed
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:37 dogmatic69 brookshire: that is logic, not validation
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:37 brookshire in that example
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:37 brookshire no, you are invalidating it from the controller
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:37 Ceeram no you are calling it from the controller, but it still done in the Model
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:36 brookshire that is definitely validation
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:36 brookshire if (!empty($user['User']['username']))
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:36 brookshire Ceeram: the model, but you're still doing the validation in the controller
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:36 dogmatic69 Router::connect( '/contact', array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' => 'display', 'contact' ) );
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:36 Ceeram in UsersController or UserModel?
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:36 dogmatic69 sphereweb: i dont know if you can do that... and you are missing a param at the end
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:36 Ceeram brookshire: and where do you think invalidate is defined?>
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:35 dogmatic69 brookshire: yes, validating from the controller... why you think its last...
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:35 sphereweb dogmatic69: I have this in my routes.php: Router::connect('(Login|Terms|Privacy|Contact)', array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' => 'display'));
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:35 brookshire $this->User->invalidate('username_unique');//populates tagErrorMsg('User/username_unique')
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:34 dogmatic69 check the book... you can make /some/long/cake/path == /contact
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:34 brookshire i think it's the last example
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:34 dogmatic69 meh
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:34 Ceeram brookshire: on what line?
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:34 dogmatic69 ~routing
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:34 brookshire not all validation belongs in the model
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:33 sphereweb dogmatic69: i am switching frameworks, so i am rewriting my current live website in CakePHP
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:33 dogmatic69 sphereweb: that is where routing comes in handy
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:33 brookshire The add form view in /app/views/blog/add.thtml
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:33 Ceeram brookshire: what its your point?
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:33 brookshire in one of their examples, they perform validation in the controller!
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:33 sphereweb dogmatic69: Because my website currently has the conatct page as domain.com/Contact/ and if i use /views/contacts/ i would end up with domain.com/ContactS/
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:33 arz Ceeram, so if there is no save method = no validation?
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:32 Ceeram you are getting data from kinda datasource
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:32 brookshire Ceeram: http://book.cakephp.org/view/318/Data-Validation
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:32 Ceeram arz you vallidate data to save in a datasource
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:32 dogmatic69 they dont... they make darkness industry standard
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:32 Ceeram using 99 developers?
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:32 arz Ceeram, ok, just wanted the zen way :-)
# Oct 22nd 2009, 16:31 dogmatic69 Ceeram: how does m$ change a light bulb?
