How to change a color of the inputbox on form_error validation? - El Forum - 05-02-2012
[eluser]term25[/eluser]
I would like to change a class of the input element (e.g. in css style sheet then I can add border 1px solid red for input element etc.), when there is a validation error. How to achieve this? I have not found any solution for CodeIgniter yet. Thanks in advance.
Example of my code:
Code:
<tr>
<td>
Title
</td>
<td>
<?php echo form_input('title', set_value('title'), "class = 'title'"); ?>
<?php echo form_error('title', '<span class="error">', '</span>'); ?>
</td>

Code:
//Check to see if there was an error for this field, if there was change the class to "error"
$title_class = (form_error('title') !== '') ? 'error' : 'title';Then assign the class to your form_input() in the 3rd parameter.

You should use valid HTML in the third parameter, though.
Code:
<?php echo form_input('title', set_value('title'), 'class="title '.$title_class.'"'); ?>
