I do this using the beforeValidate method in the model, eg:
function beforeValidate()
{
// check email is unique
if ($this->findByEmail($this->data[$this->name]['email']))
{
$this->invalidate('email_unique');
}
return true;
}
this is less messy as it keeps all the validation in the same place,
and helps to keep your controller code tidy.
