Re: how to use required => true in multiple validation

var $validate = array(
'status' => array(
'maxLength' => array( # this can be any label you want
'required' => true, # careful!
'allowEmpty' => false,
'rule' => array('maxLength', 5),
'message' => array('valErrMaxCharacters %s', 5), # a modification
of mine to allow better i18n support
'last' => true
),
... # other rules
),
... # other fields
);
