Codeigniter is not decoding email address - Abdulmanan0315 - 06-15-2019
I am sending my email address through a form which is submitted by ajax to controller and the data for the ajax is created by this function:
// Function "serializeToJson" - Serialize form data, merge new object and returns json object
function serializeToJson(element, newObj){
// Serialize form and split into Json Object
var data = element.serialize().split("&");
var object = {};
for(var key in data){
object[data[key].split("=")[0]] = data[key].split("=")[1];
}
// Merge new json obj to existing json object
const target = {};
$.extend(target, newObj, object);
// return the final json object
return target;
}
and in my ajax
data : serializeToJson(SUform, {action:'process_signup'}),
**The email which is being sent through the form is getting urlencoded i.e.**
> xxxxxxxxxx%40gmail.com
the **%40** should be decoded to **@** when i receive the data in my controller.
In my controller i have set the following form validation rules for email:
$this->form_validation->set_rules('email', 'Email', 'trim|required|valid_email|is_unique[users.email]');
**The error:**
> The Email field must contain a valid email address
**What i want?**
Is there any way by which i can urldecode the email in form validation ?

According to CI3 documentation we can easily set a valid php function in the form validation third parameter. in my case i d need to use
$this->form_validation->set_rules('email', 'Email', 'trim|**urldecode**|required|valid_email|is_unique[users.email]');

Are you json_decode(array) in your controller?
