Can't get the Form Validation library to work

[eluser]runrun[/eluser]
After loading the validation class and setting rule (you sure did this) You should have this in your controller

Code:

$this->form_validation->set_error_delimiters('<span class="error">', '</span>');

And you should have this in your view file in order to display respective errors to respective form fields.

Code:

<input type="text" name="username"/>
<span>&lt;?=form_error('username')</span>;
&lt;input type="text" name="email" /&gt;
<span>&lt;?=form_error('email')?&gt;</span>
