Now I assume you are taking input as comma separated multiple emails. If
yes
use code like.
In Model
"email" => array(
'mustNotEmpty'=>array(
'rule' => 'notEmpty',
'message'=> 'Please enter to email(s)',
'last'=>true),
'mustBeEmail'=> array(
'rule' => 'validateEmails',
'message'=> '',
'last' => true)),
and put following function in same model
public function validateEmails($check) {
$emails = array_values($check);
$key = array_keys($check);
$emails = explode(',', $emails[0]);
foreach($emails as $email) {
$email = trim($email);
if(!empty($email)) {
$valid = Validation::email($email);
if(!$valid) {
$this->validationErrors[$key[0]][0]= 'You have an error
near '.$email;
break;
}
}
}
return true;
}
nothing to do in controller. only call validation method from controller.
good luck
