{SOLVED]Conditional Validation

[eluser]eric cumbee[/eluser]
i have a form that is broken up into several sections. some sections only need to be filled out in certain circumstances, mainly if the user checked a check box. im using jquery to hide and show those sections based on the user input. that is working fine.

the question i have now, is how do i setup form validation (using the CI form validation) so that if a certain check box is not checked, it will not worry about validating the fields in that form section.
