Custom Validator Syntax error

Yii 1.1 General Discussion

Dear you,

Here is my custom validator to check if user email exist. But it appears to be a syntax error. I couldn’t figure it out. Please help!


	public function newUser($attribute,$params) 

	{

		if ( $this->exists('email=:email', array(':email'=>$this->email) ) 

			return false; 

		else

			 return true; 

		

	}

You have three left parentheses so you’ll also need three right parentheses




if ($this->exists('email=:email', array(':email'=>$this->email)))

Why not use the built in ‘unique’ validator in the first place?


array('email','unique'),
