Validate Checkbox - El Forum - 04-07-2010
[eluser]Fireclave[/eluser]
I will validate a checkbox (checked or not)
In my View is:
<p><?php echo form_checkbox( $data_terms_of_use ) ?> I aggree the <?php echo anchor('terms_of_use/', 'Terms of use') ?> zu.</p>
In my Controler is:
$this->form_validation->set_rules('terms_of_use', '', 'callback_terms');
...
// To check wheter the Checkbox is checked
function terms($str)
{
if(!$str) return false;
$this->form_validation->set_message('terms_of_use', 'You must accept the terms to register.' );
return true;
}
sorry for my english, but my problem is, that this is not working. i use the input_validation class to validate the checkbox. in $data_terms_of_use are the datas for the checkbox

You can do
Code:
$this->form_validation->set_rules('passwort', '', 'matches[passwort_wdh]');Please read http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-guide/libraries/form_validation.html#rulereference for full details of the form_validation rules.

And to check if the checkbox is checked, since html checkboxes don't submit unless they are checked just do this.
Code:
$this->form_validation->set_rules('terms_of_use','','required');
