Problem : model which doesn’t actually have a table.
for example validating a form on site e.g contact form
Solution :
class ContactForm extends AppModel { var $name = ‘contactForm’; var $useTable = false; var $_schema = array( ‘name’ => array(‘type’=>’string’, ‘length’=>100), ’email’ => array(‘type’=>’string’, ‘length’=>255), ‘details’ => array(‘type’=>’text’) ); var $validate = array( ‘name’ => array( ‘rule’=>array(‘minLength’, 1), ‘message’=>’Name is required’ ), ’email’ => array( ‘rule’=>’email’, ‘message’=>’Must be a valid email address’ ), ‘details’ => array( ‘rule’=>array(‘minLength’, 1), ‘message’=>’Feedback is required’ ) ); }
