Multiselect Dropdown validation [Solved- Me Stupid :) ]

[eluser]xpix[/eluser]
So you say I should do a custom validation function.

The problem is: is this a bug in CI? Am I the only one with this problem?



This is taken from the Form_validation.php

Code:

// Cycle through the rules for each field, match the
        // corresponding $_POST item and test for errors
        foreach ($this->_field_data as $field => $row)
        {

Not an expert but it seems that the rules are applied on the POST fields. If a post does not exist but a rule exists the rule has no meaning.


The only solution I see here is to check for the POST value and throw a custom error.
