afterValidate different from yii 1.2 and 1.1.10?

Archives Agile Web Application Development with Yii1.1 and
1

i am using yii 1.1.10, and i want to know if its book mistake or because the yii version different

in the user model

he say to override the afterValidate()

function to encrypt the password in md5

the problem is that the afterValidate function is called even when the validate is failed

so if for example the user put not email in the email field and then the validate failed,

the password field will contain the md5 password and not the original password the user entered

so i changes the afterValidate() to beforeSave() am i right? it is because different yii version? thanks

I don’t think it is different.

You could check by running your app with yii 1.2 t compare. You can also check the changelogs to see if something like this has been changed.

	//this function encrypts password to md5 encryption

    	public function beforeSave()

        {

		$pass = md5($this->password);

	        $this->password = $pass;

        	return true;
