yes, i know... but i don't want 2 input boxes to search into... |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 19:41 |

and this is probably more an exception to the rule than anything else... |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 19:40 |
TommyO |
you probably need to App::import('Core', 'Validation'); right before you try to use it |

that's WAY cleaner than my current approach |

if (!Validation::blank($field)) { ... is perfectly legit in a controller |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 19:36 |
Azhi_Dahaka_ |
the only validation is: not empty... because i'm using some like queries, so empty means all |
| # |

and returns every matching book |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 19:35 |
Azhi_Dahaka_ |
the term is looked up on the name of the book, the abstract of the book and the name of the themes linked to each book |
| # |

TommyO |
Validation class is static, no reason you couldn't call those methods directly |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 19:34 |
TommyO |
you can validate, or you can check the validity from the controller, which might fit here |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 19:34 |
Azhi_Dahaka_ |
ok, case in point: search feature |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 19:34 |
TommyO |
yeah, it's starting to get grey area isn't it :) |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 19:33 |
Azhi_Dahaka_ |
yes, and no... it also looks for a field on another models |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 19:33 |
TommyO |
you could validate against a Model rule even if it never gets saved |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 19:33 |
TommyO |
so it is tied to a model, just not to a specific field |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 19:33 |
Azhi_Dahaka_ |
meh, i will check on the controller if the data on the input field is empty and return an empty array |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 19:33 |
Azhi_Dahaka_ |
hmm... it's a search term for some fields in an existing model... |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 19:32 |
TommyO |
Azhi_Dahaka_: tie it to a Model then, even if the Model isn't tied to a database |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 19:27 |
Azhi_Dahaka_ |
hmm, how can i add validation to a form not tied to a model? |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 19:17 |
Azhi_Dahaka_ |
because, that's ALL |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 19:17 |
Azhi_Dahaka_ |
so, i don't want to do a like "%%" |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 19:17 |
Azhi_Dahaka_ |
thing is: i'm not exactly looking for stuff on just one field |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 19:16 |
TommyO |
empty term however is a validation issue imho |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 19:16 |
TommyO |
Azhi_Dahaka_: I like empty in the view. <?php if (empty($results)): ?>... <?php else foreach($results as $result): ?>... |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 19:08 |
Azhi_Dahaka_ |
messages of empty term or no results should be handled on the controller or the view? |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 19:07 |
Azhi_Dahaka_ |
ok, i'm doing a search action on a controller |
| # |

in a view use $this->Session->check('Auth.User') and that should tell you if the user is logged in |

I think the AuthComponent sets Session params, so you can check these to see if a user is logged in. |
