works like a charm.. here's the final code:
var $validate = array(
'directory' => array('rule' => 'ValidFunc')
);
function ValidFunc($value) {
$this->data['ModelName']['fieldname']='new' .$value;
case 1: $this->invalidate('fieldname', 'message1'); return true;
case 2: $this->invalidate('fieldname', 'message2'); return true;
}
now here's the magic trick, in order to make it visible in the form in
the view i should..:
$this->data = $this->ModelName->data;
otherwise it doesn't get changed in the controller and then displayed
in the view.
is there a way to change it from the model itself?
