Re: is it possible to include the failed input string in the validation message?

You can override the error message using FormHelper :http://
book.cakephp.org/view/1401/options-error
If your form looked something like this you would get the result you
are looking for:
echo $this->Form->input('username', array('error' => $this-
>data['User']['username'] . ' is taken'));
