cakephp validate number as well floating number, should not allow alphanumeric

how to validate amount in cakephp,

validation rule: should not accept empty space, should not alpha numeric, should not accept special character except dot(.),

example:

should accept below values

12 12.0 12.00 133

should not accept below values

123_33/#$#%#$%# a1a1455 asd fadsfads

actual thing is, this field for payment gateway, so before sending amount to payment gateway, we should make sure, we are sending decimal or full integer.

You will have to do the following

http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/models/data-validation.html#Validation::money

//2.0
    var $validate = array(
        'salary' => array(
            'rule' => array('money', 'left'),
            'message' => 'Please supply a valid monetary amount.'
        )
    );

If you are using 1.3 try

http://book.cakephp.org/1.3/en/The-Manual/Common-Tasks-With-CakePHP/Data-Validation.html#money

If can also try decimal http://book.cakephp.org/1.3/en/The-Manual/Common-Tasks-With-CakePHP/Data-Validation.html#decimal

//2.0
    public $validate = array(
        'price' => array(
            'rule' => array('decimal', 2)
        )
    );

Also consider Numeric http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/models/data-validation.html#Validation::numeric
