Validation and GET values

[eluser]Zarate[/eluser]
Hi there,

I'm looking at the validation class and it seems it only works with POST data, is this true? I've looking through the docs, the forum and the actual code and i haven't found a way of using the validation class with GET params.

Am i missing something?

What i want to do is validate the data coming in the URL. For example:

wadus.com/products/123

I want to check out 123 is a number, no longer than 8 characters, no SQL injection, bla, bla, bla. Can't i do that?

Right now i'm just thinking about copying the GET array to the POST array and run the validation class... but i'd want to do it "right".

Thanks!
