I went through this *exact* same situation. I was using the form plugin to validate and submit forms. The first approach I took was to move the form to an element. If the request is an ajax request *only* the element gets rendered. I use the same element in the non-ajax version. Simply return the element as an empty add form if the save succeeds or render it with the error array if it fails. The seconds approach ( and more useful ) was to analyze the generated html from the error generation in a non ajax validation situation. The difference in the dom isextremely predictable. Take a not of the html that cake generates for errors. Then you json encode the error array and the submitted data. Using the dom functions in jquery you process the json to build the normal cake dom around the form elements and repopulate them with the data. Let me know if this helped at all. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/How-to-capture-validation-errors--%28what-variable-are-they-stored-in-%29-tf4899690.html#a14041707 Sent from the CakePHP mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
