great post Ryan! I’m also new to zf so am reading posts trying to catch it . Would like to know (if possible) your feedback about integrating your proposal with Doctrine and any clue on how to do it. Thanks in advance!

Hey, don’t blame me, blame wordpress.
Though really, I don’t care if you post with a fake or nonsense name, or put up an invalid link or email address, so validation would be a little pointless.
I would go and do a bit of hacking, but I’d end up rewriting the whole system, as I really wouldnt be happy working with the wordpress codebase. So until I have time to finish my own blog software, this will do.

your comment form doesn’t have any validation?…. Its strange that great brains like you simply miss these things!!!

I believe the post by Matthew Weierophinney that he is talking about is:

Just wondering what post from Matthew Weierophinney you were talking about. Do you happen to have a link?

@me:

I do it in a process method of the form, to keep the form level interaction away from the model, and the controller.

As you can see from my controller actions, they still have a fair chunk of code in them, and it is only the things which *should* be the responsibility of the controller. That is passing the data about, delegating to the model, and deciding the appropriate method to use for the response (redirect of render the view).

I recently became aware of a post by Matthew Weierophinney where he deals with this problem in a similar way except he deals with the processing in the model, which I don’t like so much, but the idea is pretty much the same.

Good tutorial,

but why you do it in process() function instead of the controller action methods?

In the “Edit Case” you have to exclude the 2 elements inside the action method, and form validating inside the controller.

TheAshMan : This is a brilliant idea. as of late ive been messing around with the form in my controller and it has led to messy code. Ive been trying to think of ways around this and then i’ve just read this. thanks Bittarman TheAshMan
