You have to use sfValidatorOr, with a custom validator "isNull". Take a look at source code of validators, very interesting.

My problem is that I need a start date to be entered ("required"=>true), end date is optional (as it can run indefinitely, but the I also need to validate that the start date is less than the end date. I am having trouble setting up the validators for this. Currently I have the following to meet the required start but optional end date: "start_date"=>new sfValidatorDate(array( "min"=>date('Y-m-d'), ), array( "min"=>"Date used cannot be earlier than today", "required"=>"A start date is required", "invalid"=>"This needs to be a date in the format YYYY-MM-DD" )), "end_date"=>new sfValidatorDate(array("required"=>false), array( "invalid"=>"This needs to be a date in the format YYYY-MM-DD" )) And I have also created a post validator to ensure start < end: $this->validatorSchema->setPostValidator( new sfValidatorSchemaCompare('start_date', sfValidatorSchemaCompare::LESS_THAN_EQUAL, 'end_date', array('throw_global_error' => true), array( "invalid"=>"The start date needs to be before the end date" ))) The problem with this, if end_date is left blank the post validator throws the error. -- Gareth McCumskey http://garethmccumskey.blogspot.com twitter: @garethmcc -- If you want to report a vulnerability issue on symfony, please send it to security at symfony-project.com You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "symfony users" group.
