How to validate different model fields in one form in ?Yii - php

Question

I have two models
1)TblRegistration : $model as object
-director
-experience
-language
2)TblLogin : $model2 as object
-email
-password
Both fields are included in TblRegistration/_form.php
By defaut TblRegistration fields validation is included in rules().
views/tblRegistration/_form.php
<div class="row">
<?php echo $form->labelEx($model,'director'); ?>
<?php echo $form->textField($model,'director',array('size'=>50,'maxlength'=>50)); ?>
<?php echo $form->error($model,'director'); ?>
</div>
<div class="row">
<?php echo $form->labelEx($model,'experience'); ?>
<?php echo $form->textField($model,'experience'); ?>
<?php echo $form->error($model,'experience'); ?>
</div>
<div class="row">
<?php echo $form->labelEx($model,'language'); ?>
<?php echo $form->textField($model,'language',array('size'=>50,'maxlength'=>50)); ?>
<?php echo $form->error($model,'language'); ?>
</div>
<div class="row">
<?php echo $form->labelEx($model1,'email'); ?>
<?php echo $form->textField($model1,'email'); ?>
<?php echo $form->error($model1,'email'); ?>
</div>
<div class="row">
<?php echo $form->labelEx($model1,'password'); ?>
<?php echo $form->textField($model1,'password'); ?>
<?php echo $form->error($model1,'password'); ?>
</div>
models/TblRegistration.php
public function rules() {
// NOTE: you should only define rules for those attributes that
// will receive user inputs.
return array(
array('director, experience, language', 'required'),
array('experience', 'numerical', 'integerOnly'=>true),
array('director, language', 'length', 'max'=>50),
// The following rule is used by search().
// #todo Please remove those attributes that should not be searched.
array('reg_id, director, experience, language', 'safe', 'on'=>'search'),
);
}
I want to include TblLogin fields into model/TblRegistraion rules for validation.

You can manually validate a model by calling the validate() method:
if($modelA->validate() && $modelB->validate()) {
// Call save method, fix foreign keys, etc
$this->redirect(array('view'));
}
If there is an error the page will not be redirected so your form will reload. $form->error() will highlight the error fields. Also, when the first argument of errorSummary is an array containing your models, it will summarize them all for you.
