Re: 1 form 2 models - how to validate without savingAll?

yeah...
a quick overview over the cake "model.php" in "cake/libs/model/
model.php" shows me, that

---------------------------
if ($this->ModelName->saveAll($this->data, array('validate' =>
'only'))) {..
---------------------------

Does exactly the same as the code provided in the blog post.
It only validates one model after the other. I may be mistaken,
because i don't want to read each and every line of the code now, but
i'm pretty sure it is the same.

Also if you really want to do this:
----------------------------
if ($this->User->validates() && $this->Profile->validates()) {
----------------------------
it is the right method.

If you want to do that:
----------------------------
if ($this->User->validates()){...
//saving the user
//manipulating some data and stuff for the profile
if($this->Profile->validates()){...
----------------------------
The blog method is the right one.

Good Luck with your project ;)
