I have validates_uniqueness_of :name in my model which works fine when creating a record but doesn't work when I edit the record. In other words it won't let me create a record with the same name but I can go in after and update the field without a problem. Why would this happen? -Mike
nevermind, figured it out. peace -mike
The validation was working fine. The problem was that the logic in my controller where I submitted the form to didn't was flawed and so it didn't indicate there had been a problem saving it. -Mike
