Really? I'm not 100% sure that's right - although happy to be corrected. I've not looked at the source, but I was under the impression the validations were added to a hash that was iterated when "valid?" is called, and a hash returns its elements in no guaranteed order... I tend to do stuff like: validates_presence_of :foo validates_uniqueness_of :foo, :if => :foo validates_length_of :foo, :maximum => 255, :if => :foo -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
