Rails - Jun 2006 - call validate functions

Hi

on the code below the validates all the form fields

    if @client.save
      flash[:notice] = ''Client was successfully created.''
      redirect_to :action => ''list''
    else
      render :action => ''new''
    end


how can I do this action without having to save the object?

ie

if validate
   #move on to next stage
else
   redner :action => new
end

According ot the API docs: "Runs validate and validate_on_create or 
validate_on_update and returns true if no errors were added otherwise 
false".
