Is your question how to add validation? When you say you don't have a model I presume you mean you do not have a Signup model. The validations go with the model that you are writing to so the validations will be on the User and Account models. Then when you try to save them they will fail so you can take appropriate action. However, as Marnen has said, if you want authentication then I also suggest looking at Authlogic unless you are just doing this as an exercise. There are a lot of pitfalls in authentication that are easy to fall into and it is an area of the site that can give you big problems if it is not secure. There is also devise that has had some publicity lately but I have not tried it. Colin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
