Using the inList validation rule I have 2 questions.
'rule' => array('inList', array('0', '1', '2','3', '4', '5', '6', '7')),
will allow values matching 0 thru 7 anything else is invalid
So my first question is if I created an variable array of values from a find
could i just use 'rule' => array('inList', $myListVariable),
and if that is possible how do i get the $myListVariable into the validation
function?
Or is better to just stick with what im currently doing. For example I have
my country select list and it has a validation 'rule' =>
array('checkCountryValues'),
Model function for the country validation
/*
Form Modification Validation
Checks that entered values for Country are Valid
*/
public function checkCountryValues($data)
{
$valid = false;
$model_table = Inflector::classify($this->useTable);
if (!empty($this->data))
{
// this section matches values against database
$value = array($this->data[$model_table]['country_id']);
$results = array_diff($value, $this->Country->find('list',
array('fields' => 'id')));
if (empty($results))
$valid = true;
}
return $valid;
}
So if anyone messes with the form it returns invalid.
Ideas?
