Re: CakePHP 1.2.6 - problem with displaying form error messages

Hello. What do you mean by manually?

I don't want to save data to database with just checking if data is
not empty. I want to validate entered data and display errors before
saving to database table.

As I wrote, in model I supply which fields I want to validate - I
supply rule for field and message which should be displayed if field
hasn't been filled out correctly.

In controller I use $this->User->set($this->data) and $this->User-
>validates() to check if supplied data is valid.
If it's not valid, I use $this->validateErrors($this->User) to display
error messages.

The problem is, $form->error('field') doesn't display error message
from $validate variable. Validation function creates the div "error-
message" for message, but the div is empty.
If I use $form->error('field','Some message') - message is displayed.
But I don't want to enter messages text in the view. I rather keep
that in user.php model in $validate variable. But this way, message is
not displayed and I don't know why.

I even changed the version of CakePHP from 1.2.6 to 1.2.5, but it
still doesn't show error messages, which is really weird, cause I use
this solution in every project and in every project on 1.2.5 it always
worked.
