validation rules from 1 to 9 - El Forum - 06-23-2009

I would like to check a value from 1 ( min ) to 9 ( max ) :
I did that
Code:
$this->form_validation->set_rules('licoef', 'coef', 'integer'|'exact_length[1]');but when I put 12 I don't get an error message

The rules all need to be one string,
Code:
// So instead of
'integer'|'exact_length[1]'
// try
'integer|exact_length[1]'validation rules from 1 to 9 - El Forum - 06-23-2009

That's because your syntax is incorrect. The rules are a single string parameter:
Code:
$this->form_validation->set_rules('licoef', 'coef', 'integer|exact_length[1]');EDIT: Poop.

Great !!!! It works !! thank you
Now I would like to enlarge the question ( for the future ) how to check a min and max value for example ( from 5 to 15 )?

Create a custom method in your controller.
Code:
function _validate_liceof($str="")
{
$str = (int)$str;
if ($str < 5 || $str > 15)
{
$this->form_validation->set_message('_validate_liceof', 'You must enter a number between 5 and 15');
return FALSE;
}
return TRUE;
}
