[quote author="scout" date="1327269999"]I ended up hacking the system form_validation library by adding \s to the alpha_dash function. All the tests I ran against the server wouldn't reveal any server or configuration problems. This hack resolved the matter instantly. Still, on another server I did not have this problem. Weird.

Code:
function alpha_dash($str)
{
  return ( ! preg_match("/^([-a-z0-9_-\s])+$/i", $str)) ? FALSE : TRUE;
}
[/quote]
Same thing happened to me bro. All my previous projects never had this problem, both locally and online. And now spaces aren't going through validation.

Thanks for the snippet anyway..
