Form Validation - usr_ny - 02-28-2017
I have a form on an index page (controllername/)
That form does a POST to controllername/create
The form validation is in the index method of the controllername class.
When the form is submitted, the validation doesn't happen.
What am I doing wrong?

CI performs form validation when the form input has been posted.
So move your form validation to the create method.
A better way is to keep the code for displaying the form and performing the form validation within one method.
As described in the documentation:
