Hi all!
I am currently working on a web application that will allow a user to create dynamic forms online and collect data using it.
So what I need to do is to create custom forms using codeIgniter. What I need to know is how to implement it as I also need form validation along with it.
Can anybody please help me out with it?
Regards

Save form information to database.
Read form information from database and use to construct your form.
Anything specific hanging you up.

You'll use the same form validation processes/functions, but you'll be using database supplied data and not hard-coding it
Code:
$form = $this->form_model->get_form($form_id);
$this->form_validation->set_rules($form['validation_rules']);
if ($this->form_validation->run())
{
//...
