Try the following:
static $validates_presence_of = array(
array('fk_id'),
array('another_fk_id')
);
Well, sure, but I was worried more along the lines of:
Author
id: 1 name: Jim Writerson
Book
id: 2 author_id: 1 name: PHP-Activerecord Makes PHP Fun!
$a = Author::find(1);
$a->delete()
(You shouldn't be able to delete an association because a Book is referring to it! Perhaps even given the option to delete 'force'=>true where it breaks the link, and delete 'associated' => true deletes any books that belong_to it)
Thanks to line 877 of http://github.com/kla/php-activerecord/blob/master/lib/Model.php
if (!$this->invoke_callback('before_destroy',false))
It seems reasonable that I could write a before-callback that interrupts the process.

Subject: Foreign key validation?
Hello,
I have several foreign key constraints in my database, and I was wondering if there was a technique or standard way for validating them within php.activerecord.
From the list:
http://www.phpactiverecord.org/projects/main/wiki/Validations
I am not exactly looking for something this strong:
http://guides.rubyonrails.org/activerecord_validations_callbacks.html#validates-acceptance-of
(as I understand it, this would run the validators of the associated objects, I merely wish to detect the presence or lack thereof)
Cheers,
-Michael
