A few quick observations...
Your 'minLenght' validation rules are spelt incorrectly. Should be 'minLength'.
Try using <code> echo $this->Form->input('Model.fieldName', array('class' =>
'fullwidth')); </code>. Notice I use the model name as well.
This ought to make your $form-error statements redundant too.
Next step is to: <code> debug($this->data); </code> ...in both your controller
function and your view - see what's in there. If you are still having problems,
post the contents of the data array back here.
