Run multiple form validation from config file

Hmm, actually, it looks like you can set the rules first, and then run them all if we have the rules like ChristiaanT wrote:

Code:

$config = array(
    'default' => array(
        array(
            'field' => 'person_name',
            'label' => 'Name',
            'rules' => 'required'
            ),
        array(
            'field' => 'person_email',
            'label' => 'Email',
            'rules' => 'required'
            ),
        ),
    'blabla' => array(
        array(
            'field' => 'blabla_date',
            'label' => 'Blabla date',
            'rules' => 'required'
            ),

We could then do:

Code:

$data[formname] = $formname;
$this->form_validation->set_rules($config['default']);
$this->form_validation->set_rules($config[$formname]);
if ($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE){      
    $this->load->view('default/header', $data);
    $this->load->view('form/form_persondata', $data);
    $this->load->view('form/form_'.$formname, $data);    
    $this->load->view('form/form_footer', $data);
    $this->load->view('default/footer');
}

If a rule exists for the same field in both the default and the form specific rule set only the later one will be user (this might be good for overriding).
