Hi,
What I'm asking might be simple for some of you but I'm trying to fix this for two days and I just can't figure out how to make this thing work. I have a model with a date_select validation that is working just fine except when I fill the form with a invalid date like Feb 30 1989. I thought the plugin validates_multiparameter_assignments would catch this kind of invalid date but for some reason is just not working. Below I'm pasting my model and controller code to see if someone can help me.
class Spec < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :user
ALL_FIELDS = %w(first_name last_name address phone gender birthdate city state zip_code) STRING_FIELDS = %w(first_name last_name address phone city state) VALID_GENDERS = ["Male", "Female"] START_YEAR = 1900 END_YEAR = Date.today.year - 18 ZIP_CODE_LENGTH = 10
validates_length_of STRING_FIELDS, :maximum => DB_STRING_MAX_LENGTH validates_inclusion_of :gender, :in => VALID_GENDERS, :allow_nil => true, :message => "must be male or female" validates_presence_of :zip_code, :birthdate validates_multiparameter_assignments :message => " is not a valid date." validates_each :birthdate do |record, attr, value| record.errors.add attr, "is not a valid date. You must be at least 18 years old to sign in." if value > Date.new((Date.today.year - 18),(Date.today.month),(Date.today.day)) end end
class SpecController < ApplicationController
before_filter :protect
# Edit the user's spec. def edit @user = User.find(session[:user_id]) @title = "aykal - edit #{@user.screen_name} profile" @user.spec ||= Spec.new @spec = @user.spec if param_posted?(:spec) @user.spec.valid? if @user.spec.update_attributes(params[:spec]) flash[:notice] = "Changes saved." redirect_to :controller => "user", :action => "index" end end end
end
Thanks, Thiago Guerra
