ActiveRecord validation without saving?

use the valid? method

http://www.railsmanual.org/module/ActiveRecord%3A%3AValidations/valid%3F/1.2.1

yes - it looks like railsmanuals' urls are a bit long.

but, please use your imagination and put the two strings together:

http://www.railsmanual.org/module/ActiveRecord%3A%3AValidations/valid %

and

3F/1.2.1

or better yet, go to the website and search for valid?
