My validation_errors() function is not displaying anything. Not sure what I am doing wrong.
This is my controller (login.php)
Code:
include "home.php";
class Login extends CI_Controller {
public function __construct() {
parent::__construct();
$this->home = new Home();
}
function index() {
$this->home->site['main_content'] = 'login_form';
$this->load->view('template', $this->home->site);
}
function signup() {
$this->home->site['main_content'] = 'signup_form';
$this->load->view('template', $this->home->site);
}
function create_member() {
$this->form_validation->set_rules('firstname', 'First Name', 'trim|required|min_length[2]|max_length[12]|xss_clean');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('lastname', 'Last Name', 'trim|max_length[12]|xss_clean');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('email_address', 'Email Address', 'trim|required|valid_email|xss_clean');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('username', 'Username', 'trim|required|min_length[4]|xss_clean');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('password', 'Password', 'trim|required|min_length[4]|max_length[32]');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('password2', 'Password Confirmation', 'trim|required|matches[password]');
if($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE) {
$this->home->site['main_content'] = 'signup_form';
$this->load->view('template', $this->home->site);
}
else {
/////
}
}
}
This is my view- main template (template.php)
Code:
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<div id="sidebar1">
<?php $this->load->view('includes/menu1_view'); ?>
</div>
<div id="mainContent">
<?php
if (isset($main_content) && $main_content == "signup_form"):
$this->load->view('includes/signup_view');
endif;
?>
</div>
</body>
</html>
This is another view called from template.php (signup_view.php). validation_errors() does not display anything here.
Code:
<?php
echo validation_errors(); // NOTHING DISPLAYED!
echo form_open('login/create_member');
?>
<fieldset>
<legend>Personal Info</legend>
<?php
echo form_error('firstname');
echo form_input('firstname', set_value('firstname', 'First Name'));
echo form_input('lastname', set_value('lastname', 'Last Name'));
echo form_input('email_address', set_value('email_address', 'Email Address'));
?>
</fieldset>
<fieldset>
<legend>Login Info</legend>
<?php
echo form_input('username', set_value('username', 'Username'));
echo form_password('password', set_value('password', 'Password'));
echo form_password('password2', 'Password Confirm');
echo form_submit('submit', 'Create Acccount');
?>
</fieldset>
