form validation on form with dynamic fields - El Forum - 04-07-2011

I am using javascript to add extra fields, based on how many the user adds.
I want to retain the data if the form validation does not return true, using set_value()
Since the fields will be dynamically generated by the user, is it possible to still use the form_validation w/ set_value() to accomplish this or I'll need to use javascript to restrict the user from submitting the form until all requirements have been met?
I think validating with javascript over form_validation will be the answer, but I wanted to make sure before proceeding, thank you.

You can probably use array for extra fields and for validation, check the doc if it mentions (i think it does) and test
