You need to create a custom validation rule.
http://book.cakephp.org/view/1179/Custom-Validation-Rules
Here's an example I have used where I need at least one of three different
fields completed (replace ModelName with your real model name):
var $validate = array(
'phone_home' => array(
'hasOnePhone' => array(
'rule' => 'hasOnePhone',
'message' => 'You must enter at least one phone number.'
)
),
'phone_work' => array(
'hasOnePhone' => array(
'rule' => 'hasOnePhone',
'message' => 'You must enter at least one phone number.'
)
),
'phone_cell' => array(
'hasOnePhone' => array(
'rule' => 'hasOnePhone',
'message' => 'You must enter at least one phone number.'
)
)
);
function hasOnePhone() {
if (
$this->data['ModelName']['phone_home'] != null
|| $this->data['ModelName'addressType]['phone_work'] != null
|| $this->data['ModelName']['phone_cell'] != null
):
return true;
endif;
return false;
}
