Hi Guys

I have a custom field validation rule in a config file set up, something similar to to the below:

Code:
array(

     'field' => 'check_terms',

     'label' => 'Terms of service',

     'rules' => 'callback_check_terms'

 )

A very simple function in my controller below just checks the input and provides a custom error message

Code:
public function check_terms($terms=0){

     if ($terms != 'agree')

     {

          $this->form_validation->set_message('check_terms', 'The terms of service must be read and agreed to before continuing.');

          return FALSE;

     }

     else

     {

          return TRUE;

     }

}

I wanted to make the function above 'private' so it couldn't be accessed by the URI but obviously this prevents the helper from accessing the function. I cant add the underscore to the function name because the callback doesn't seem to accept it. I was thinking of using the _remap function to send 'check_terms' in the uri to the 404 but this seems a little overkill.

Can anyone suggest a more elegant solution?

Yes, http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-gui...ml#private

Code:
function _check_terms(){}

$this->form_validation->set_rules(fieldname, labelname, 'callback__check_terms');//2 underscores

Since callback prefixes are "callback_", and the private function is "_check_terms", it ends up being "callback__check_terms" with 2 undrescores

Ya @CroNiX, he said he tried that but then the helper will not see it.

lol the old double underscore strikes again.

[eluser]CroNiX[/eluser]
I don't think he called the callback correctly, but he didn't post enough code to really know...

[eluser]InsiteFX[/eluser]
I think your right CroNiX, looks like the old double underscore problem again.

[eluser]BenAbrams[/eluser]
If I double underscore, instead of showing my custom message, it shows "Unable to access an error message corresponding to your field name."

[eluser]CroNiX[/eluser]
Did you change the name of your error message to "_check_terms" since you changed the function name? They have to be the same.

I did indeed.

[eluser]CroNiX[/eluser]
Strange, works just fine from here.

[eluser]InsiteFX[/eluser]

Code:
array(

     'field' => 'check_terms',

     'label' => 'Terms of service',

     'rules' => 'callback__check_terms' // double underscore

 )

Code:
public function _check_terms($terms=0){

     if ($terms != 'agree')

     {

          $this->form_validation->set_message('_check_terms', 'The terms of service must be read and agreed to before continuing.'); // according to CroNiX

          return FALSE;

     }

     else

     {

          return TRUE;

     }

}
