Invalid Request Variable?
#1

[eluser]Bl4cKWid0w[/eluser]
I am musing the form validation class on one of my pages. Everything works fine until I submit the form. When the form submits, the only thing that shows up on my page is a message that says "Invalid request variable.". I have never seen this and am very confused by the message. Does anyone have any ideas as to what may be causing this to happen?

Submitting over POST or GET? Can you show us your form HTML? Also, can you output the POST/GET variable before you get this message, is the data coming through?

As far as I can tell you have not closed your form.

Try adding "&lt;/form&gt;" after the submit button.

Also, you seem to be calling DB queries inside your view file, which is bad practice, you should have a model do the DB work for you and return results to the controller which then passes the data into your view file.

I tried both. Neither worked.
