Validation triggering from page posting data to another page requiring validation - El Forum - 07-26-2012 [eluser]Koodoo Creative[/eluser] hi all, Got quite an annoying quirk going on with CI validation; 1. I have a 4 step form, has to be done this way for the user interactions. 2. Step 1 has two drop down menus; you select the data, click next, this goes to Step 2 3. In Step 2, there is further validation (just for step 2), however coming from Step 1 with 2 POST values always triggers the Step 2 form validation, this happens even before any attempt is made to POST Step 2. Wondering how people get round this, it makes using CI validation in stepped forms a little problematic! Thanks in advance EDIT: Managed to solve this issue, will post some example code to benefit others at some point :-) |
