Rails - Apr 2006 - validation :on => :update....

I would like to validate a model on several events. I have:

validates_numericality_of :ships_in, :on => :update, :message => 
''xyz....''

I have this validating on update, but I also want it to validate on save 
and on create as well.

Do I have to duplicate this validator for each event? or is there 
something cool i can do like:

:on => [:update, :save, :create]
(which doesn''t work) :-)

Thanks for your help!

If you get rid of the ":on => ..." it will work for all of them. :)

That''s crazy talk. :-)

Took the api doc too literally:

on - Specifies when this validation is active (default is :save, other 
options :create, :update)

I assumed the default would only apply to save.

Thanks Adam!!
