Re: Help setting custom validation counting rule

Im doing this way, but it's not quite working:
In my model:

[code]
'state' => array(
'limit' => array(
'rule' => array ('limitState', 10),
'message' => '*The limit for this state has been
reached'
),

//Along with other rules...

//then the function:
function limitState($data, $limit) {
$count = $this->find('count', array('conditions' => $data,
'recursive' => -1) );
return $contagem < $limit;
}

[/code]

I think I just need to narrow my find to only the 'CA' state, but I dont
know how can I do that. Anyone know?

Thanks again!
