[eluser]johnny916[/eluser]

My site is sealteamrealty.com

I'm getting an error on my contact page so the HTML form elements won't even show up??

Fatal error: Call to undefined function validation_errors() in /home/johnny/public_html/sealteamrealty.com/application/views/contact.php on line 36

Here is the problem lines of code, the functions seems to be undefined but I've placed all the files where the Docs said to..

<?php echo validation_errors(); ?>

<?php echo form_open('form'); ?>


Click Contact page on my site to see what I'm talking about..

Have you loaded form_helper in your controller?
Post your controller code for more clearance.

<?php

class Form extends CI_Controller {

function index()
{
$this->load->helper(array('form', 'url'));

$this->load->library('form_validation');

$this->form_validation->set_rules('name', 'Name', 'required');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('email', 'Email', 'required');

if ($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE)
{
$this->load->view('myform');
}
else
{
$this->load->view('formsuccess');
}
}
}
?>
