#6432: form helper gets confused by some validation rules
---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
Reporter: q7joey | Type: Bug
Status: new | Priority: Medium
Milestone: 1.2.x.x | Component: Helpers
Version: 1.2 Final | Severity: Normal
Keywords: | Php_version: PHP 5
Cake_version: 1.2.3.8166 |
---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
this appears to be related to #3869.
any field that has a validation rule and is not marked as required=>false
will normally get the required class added to the div. but if the rule is
one that is configured via an array (like array(postal,null,us)) and the
rule=> index happens to be first, then the required tag is not presented.
this is caused because Set::countDim is used and it only looks at the
first element by default to determine the array depth and when the form
helper sees a depth greater than one, it assumes multiple rules and then
the logic breaks. if put a simple entry before the rule=> index, then the
form helper works.
for example:
{{{
#!php
// does not add 'required' class
$validate = array(
'zip' => array(
'rule' => array('postal',null,'us'),
'message' => 'Invalid ZIP',
),
);
// does add 'required' class
$validate = array(
'zip' => array(
'message' => 'Invalid ZIP',
'rule' => array('postal',null,'us'),
),
);
}}}
the code in question is around line 142 in
cake/libs/view/helpers/form.php. i'm not sure of the best fix for this,
maybe a check to see if 'rule' is set in the array? that seems to be the
logic being used in cake/lib/model/model.php.
