i am using
Code:
$this->form_validation->set_rules('email_address', 'Email Address', 'trim|required|valid_email');to validate my email i would like to take it 1 step further and have it check to see if that email is in the DB can this be done in the validation or do i just need to create an if statement after the validation?
