Ok this might be hard to explain.
Picture a single form that has multiple selects.
Each select belongs to a section_id so it can range between 1 -5 in its id
value. A Section has many Options and Options belong To Section
Each section_id has many options so to make it clear to understand
Section 1 you can select values of 0-5
Section 2 selects can select options 6 - 10
Section 3 can select say options 11 - 15
So the form has
Select1 | Select1 | Select1
Select2 | Select2 | Select2
Select3 | Select3 | Select3
Now comes validation I need to ensure that the values were not changed buy
firebug so someone tries to save a Select3 option as a value in Select2.make
sense?
So when validating select1 its only valid if it contains values 0-5. I am
currently doing a foreach thru the submitted array and checking with
foreach ( $data['UsersOption'] as $key => $value) {
//cached data sets of $section_id for each section
//so this gets all options available to choose from for the section
$valid_options = $this->Option->__getOptionList( $value['section_id'] );
if ( !in_array( $key, $valid_options ) ) {
//if not in list specific to the section remove key
unset( $data['UsersOption'][$key] );
}
}
I know its rather hard to understand but maybe someone would know if there
is a better way?
Thanks,
Dave
