Callback function are not working...

Okay, looks like no-one really has a clue on this. That's okay, I'll keep at it tonight when I get home from work.

However, if someone could do a little test for me to help isolate the problem I'd be extremely grateful!!!

In System/libraries/Form_validation.php, line 584, can someone test this (from a controller/form that has a callback function)

Code:

// Call the function that corresponds to the rule
if ($callback === TRUE)
{
       var_dump($rule), //works, prints 'phone_and_email_required'
       var_dump(method_exists($this->CI, $rule));    //prints bool(false), but it should be true!!!

        if ( ! method_exists($this->CI, $rule))
{
  continue;
}
      var_dump('still here'); // nothing, because the above check failed, executing the 'continue' statement.

I'm interested specifically in this line of code:

Code:

var_dump(method_exists($this->CI, $rule));    //prints bool(false), but it should be true!!!

And want to know if you get a bool(true) or bool(false). If you get true, then I think I know what the problem is (I've got some core library extensions that allow for controllers to have dash(-) instead of underscores(_) in the url, I think it might be re-writing my callback function name as "callback-some-function" thus failing the "method_exists" check).

But yeah, if someone could test this for me on one of their CI websites I'd be very grateful, many many many thanks in advance!
