Validated form data - where does it go?!?

[eluser]juddmuir[/eluser]
Hi,

I'm using the form validation class to trim and validate form data:

$this->form_validation->set_rules('classified_title', 'lang:classified_title', 'trim|required|xss_clean');

But once validated, where do I get the trimmed data? If I use the post array, then I've lost the data that's been processed :-(

Where does the submitted data go once it's been validated?!?
