Issue with validation_errors()

[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
Hi All

I seem to be having an issue retrieving validation messages through the validation_errors() method when the view is nested in a sub folder.

I decided to run some tests and copied basically the same setup as is on the User Guide.

If I put the validation_errors() method in a view that sits in application/views/XXX.php the messages are output fine.

If I have the view in a sub-folder such as application/views/folder/XXX.php the messages are not output (even though the validation rules are being applied and the run() method is returning false).

Any ideas? could this possibly be a bug with the CI core?

Thanks all
