Custom errors in Form Validation (basic)

[eluser]pistolPete[/eluser]
Since MY_Form_validation is just a subclass of Form_validation, you could use:

Code:

function set_error($error = '')
{
        if (empty($error))
        {
            return FALSE;
        }
        else
        {
           $this->_error_array['custom_error'] = $error;
           return TRUE;
        }
}
