RE: Calling index() on form validation failure - dbrooke - 10-28-2016
Hi, sorry for the delay:
CI 3.1.
I have already added the error to /system/language/english/form_validation_lang.php
Custom Helper (which worked for non-required as a callback_ when in the controller):
PHP Code:
if ( ! function_exists('customAlpha')) {
function customAlpha($str)
{
if (!preg_match('/^[a-z .,\-\']+$/i', $str)) {
return FALSE;
} else {
return TRUE;
}
}
}

Hi,
I would try to change the function so it return true no matter what.
You should not modify any files in the system folders EVER.

salain, that helped once again. Problem was the regex. This is what I have ended up with....
seems to work with textareas as well:
PHP Code:
if ( ! function_exists('customAlpha')) {
function customAlpha($str)
{
if (!preg_match('/^[a-zA-Z0-9 .,\-\']*$/m', $str)) {
return FALSE;
} else {
return TRUE;
}
}
}
