I am working on a reservation tool and am having problems with the validation. When I validate the information it fails and calls the load view method. However, none of the fields populate, nor does the error message populate.If I echo the error field before loading the view I can see all the errors.

Any ideas what might be causing this?

Here is some code of the code:

(Controller Function that handles Validation)

Code:
function _validateBirthdayReservation() {    

        $rules['conFirstName']        = "trim|required";

        $rules['conLastName']        = "required";

        $rules['conAddress']        = "required";

        $rules['conCity']            = "required";

        $rules['conState']            = "required";

        $rules['conZip']            = "required";        

        $rules['conEMail']            = "required";

        $rules['conPhone']            = "required";

        $rules['childFirstName']    = "required";

        $rules['childLastName']        = "required";

        $rules['childDOBDay']        = "required";

        $rules['childDOBMonth']        = "required";

        $rules['childDOBYear']        = "required";

        $rules['childFavColor']        = "required";

        $rules['partyDateDay']        = "required";

        $rules['partyDateMonth']    = "required";

        $rules['partyDateYear']        = "required";

        $rules['partyTime']            = "required";

        $rules['partySodaType']        = "required";

        $rules['partyPizzaType']    = "required";

        $rules['partyNbrKids']        = "required";

        $rules['ccHolderName']        = "required";

        $rules['ccType']            = "required";

        $rules['ccNumber']            = "required";

        $rules['ccExpDateMonth']    = "required";

        $rules['ccExpDateYear']        = "required";

        $this->validation->set_rules($rules);

        $fields['conFirstName']        = "Contact First Name";

        $fields['conLastName']        = "Contact Last Name";

        $fields['conAddress']        = "Contact Address";

        $fields['conCity']            = "Contact City";

        $fields['conState']            = "Contact State";

        $fields['conZip']            = "Contact Zip";    

        $fields['conEMail']            = "Contact E-Mail";

        $fields['conPhone']            = "Contact Phone";

        $fields['childFirstName']    = "Child's First Name";

        $fields['childLastName']    = "Child's Last Name";

        $fields['childDOBDay']        = "Child's Date of Birth: Day";

        $fields['childDOBMonth']    = "Child's Date of Birth: Month";

        $fields['childDOBYear']        = "Child's Date of Birth: Year";

        $fields['childFavColor']    = "Child's Favorit Color";

        $fields['partyDateDay']        = "Party Date: Day";

        $fields['partyDateMonth']    = "Party Date: Month";

        $fields['partyDateYear']    = "Party Date: Year";

        $fields['partyTime']        = "Party Time";

        $fields['partySodaType']    = "Party Soda Type";

        $fields['partyPizzaType']    = "Party Pizza Type";

        $fields['partyNbrKids']        = "Number of Kids";

        $fields['ccHolderName']        = "Credit Card Holder Name";

        $fields['ccType']        = "Credit Card Type";

        $fields['ccNumber']            = "Credit Card Number";

        $fields['ccExpDateMonth']    = "Credit Card Expiration: Month";

        $fields['ccExpDateYear']    = "Credit Card Expiration: Year";

        $this->validation->set_fields($fields);

        if (!$this->validation->run()) {

            //echo $this->validation->error_string;

            $this->load->view('parties_birthday_reservation');

        } else {

            //$this->load->view('formsuccess');

            echo "The form passed all test!";

        }

    }

(A part of the View 'parties_birthday_reservation')

Code:
<label id="conZip-label">Zip: 

        &lt;input id="conZip-input" name="conZip" type="text" value="&lt;?=$this-&gt;validation->conZip;?&gt;">

        </label>

        <label id="conEMail-label">E-Mail Address: 

        &lt;input id="conEMail-input" name="conEMail" type="text" value="&lt;?=$this-&gt;validation->conEMail;?&gt;">

        </label>

        <label id="conPhone-label">Phone Number: 

        &lt;input id="conPhone-input" name="conPhone" type="text" value="&lt;?=$this-&gt;validation->conPhone;?&gt;">

        </label>

(Another part of the View 'parties_birthday_reservation' that handles the error information)

Code:
&lt;?php if ($this->validation->error_string <> ''): ?&gt;

      <div style="float:left; margin-left:10px; width: 310px; padding:10px; border: solid 1px #FF0000; margin-top:10px; color:#FF0000;">

      Error(s): <br />

      &lt;?=$this->validation->error_string;?&gt;

      </div>

      &lt;?php endif; ?&gt;

Any thoughts?
