form_validation bug for required (validation error message not being set)? - El Forum - 01-27-2009
[eluser]acesfull9[/eluser]
This has been bothering me for an hour or two.
I have a single field on my form that is required. The exact rules are "trim|required|numeric". Everything works fine except when I submit the form with no input (""). It fails the validation (as it should), but the error message is not being set.
If i submit a space " ", it again, fails the validation as it should, but the error message is set ("The FIELD_NAME field is required.").
Has anyone else noticed this?
Thanks
