I am new to CakePHP. When I am using Model Field Validations
then it is showing error message infront of each required form field. I want to show it in a div at the top of the form. How I can implement it. Thanks in advance.
Here is my Code:
Model:
<?php
class User extends AppModel {
public $validate = array(
'username' => array(
'required' => array(
'rule' => array('notEmpty'),
'message' => 'A username is required'
),
array(
'rule' => array('minLength', 8),
'message' => 'Username must be at least 6 characters long'
)
),
'password' => array(
'required' => array(
'rule' => array('notEmpty'),
'message' => 'A password is required'
)
),
'city' => array(
'required' => array(
'rule' => array('notEmpty'),
'message' => 'A City is required'
)
),
'state' => array(
'required' => array(
'rule' => array('notEmpty'),
'message' => 'A State is required'
)
),
'role' => array(
'valid' => array(
'rule' => array('inList', array('admin', 'author')),
'message' => 'Please enter a valid role',
'allowEmpty' => false
)
)
);
}
UsersController.php
public function add() {
$this->set('states_options', $this->State->find('list', array('fields' =>array('id','name') )));
$this->set('cities_options', array());
if ($this->request->is('post')) {
$this->User->set($this->request->data);
if($this->User->validates())
{
$this->User->create();
if ($this->User->save($this->request->data)) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The user has been saved'));
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
} else {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The user could not be saved. Please, try again.'));
}
}
else {
$errors = $this->User->validationErrors;
$this->set('ValidateAjay',$errors);
//pr($errors);die;
}
}
}
User View:
<!--<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.7.2.js"></script>-->
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#UserState').change(function(){
var stateid=$(this).val();
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "checkcity",
data:'stateid='+stateid+'&part=checkcity',
success: function(data) {
$("#city_div").html(data);
}
});
});
});
</script>
<div class="users form">
<?php
if(!empty($ValidateAjay)){
pr($ValidateAjay);
}
echo $this->Form->create('User'); ?>
<fieldset>
<legend><?php echo __('Add User'); ?></legend>
<?php
echo $this->Form->input('username');
echo $this->Form->input('password');
echo $this->Form->input('state', array('options' => $states_options , 'empty' => 'Select State' ));
?>
<div id="city_div">
<?php
echo $this->Form->input('city', array('options' => $cities_options, 'empty' => 'Select City' ));
?>
</div>
<?php
echo $this->Form->input('role', array(
'options' => array('admin' => 'Admin', 'author' => 'Author')
));
?>
</fieldset>
<?php echo $this->Form->end(__('Submit')); ?>
</div>
