After installing form validation, I can still click the submit button on the form and continue to the next page successfully - no error messages, etc.
Here is the controller:
Code: <?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
class Login extends CI_Controller {
function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
}
function index()
{
$this->load->helper('form');
$this->load->library('form_validation');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('member_email','Your Email','required');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('password','Password','required');
$data['page_title'] = 'Login';
$data['page_heading'] = 'Login to the Bomra';
$this->load->view('header', $data);
if ($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE)
{
$this->load->view('loginview', $data);
}
$this->load->view('footer');
}
Here is the form view:
Code: <div id="form_login">
<?php echo validation_errors();?>
<?php echo form_open('login/loggedin'); ?>
<?php echo form_fieldset('Login Form'); ?><br /><br />
<?php echo form_label('Member Email','member_email'); ?>
<?php $email_data = array(
'name' => 'member_email',
'id' => 'member_email',
'value' => '',
'maxlength' => '60',
'size' => '30'
);
echo form_input($email_data);
?><br /><br />
<?php echo form_label('Password','password'); ?>
<?php $password_data = array(
'name' => 'password',
'id' => 'password',
'value' => '',
'maxlength' => '60',
'size' => '30'
);
echo form_password($password_data);
?><center><br /><br />
<?php echo form_submit('loginsubmit','Submit Login'); ?>
<br /><br /></center>
<?php echo form_fieldset_close(); ?>
<?php echo form_close(); ?>
</div>
Here is the login page view:
Code: <div id="content-1col">
<?php $this->load->view('form_login'); ?>
</div>
There must be something missing, but I cannot see it. Thanks for looking at this.

You should send it to to same controller and method over an over in order to get the errors
Code: class User extends CI_Controller {
public function insert() {
$this->form_validation->set_rules('email', 'E-mail', 'required|trim');
if ( $this->form_validation->run() ) {
//Insert into the database
//Succesful message
} else {
$this->load->view('newuserform');
}
}
}
View
Code: <?php echo form_open('user/insert'); ?>
<?php echo form_label('E-mail', 'email'); ?>
<?php
$input = array(
'name' => 'email',
'class' => 'txt',
'value' => set_value('email')
);
echo form_input($input);
?>
<?php echo form_submit('', 'Create User',); ?>
<?php echo form_close(); ?>

Thanks, JuanitoDelCielo, but it looks like you are trying to show me a better way to do the form - or forms, in your view. As I look at it, your example does not accomplish the same thing - and it gives me no clue why the validation code I submitted does not work. The code I presented is almost exactly as it is written in the manual for a basic login with validation. I need to know why the validation does not work. Any help in this regard will be much appreciated. Thanks.

becuase you do not have the else statement!

Thanks for the tip, InsightFX, but that did not cure the problem. The reason for lack of else statement was because the form implied the else with Code: <?php echo form_open('login/loggedin'); ?>
which corresponded with the loggedin() function of the login controller (which was not displayed in my previous code segments. Nonetheless, I have updated the controller with Code: if ($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE)
{
$this->load->view('loginview', $data);
} else {
$this->load->view('loggedinview', $data);
}
but even with this, the viewer can click the empty form's submit button and travel to the next page without validation.
Any other ideas? I have spent days on this. All googling points me to the same examples and instructions I am using. Do I have a defective codeigniter framework?

JuanitoDelCielo posted the right way for you - the most important information
he posted for you is the form action attribute.
If you set up your validation rules in controller_A / method_a
you form has to be send to controller_A / method_a.
You did set up the rules in Login / index but your form is send to
login / loggedin. You didn't post the method "loggedin" but it seems
that your validation rules are placed like you posted.
Did you try to adjust the action attribute? Just give it a try!

Lucky, I am not sure I am understanding what you are saying. So I will post the entire controller. Do you mind explaining it to me in that context? and if you need another file, let me know.
Code: <?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
class Login extends CI_Controller {
function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
}
function index()
{
$this->load->helper('form');
$this->load->library('form_validation');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('member_email','Your Email','trim|required|valid_email');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('password','Password','trim|required|md5');
$data['page_title'] = 'Login';
$data['page_heading'] = 'Login to the Bomra';
$this->load->view('header', $data);
if ($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE)
{
$this->load->view('loginview', $data);
} else {
$this->load->view('loggedinview', $data);
}
$this->load->view('footer');
}
function loggedin()
{
$data['page_title'] = 'Loggedin';
$data['page_heading'] = 'Hey! Hey! You have logged in to the Bomra';
$this->load->view('header', $data);
$this->load->view('loggedinview', $data);
$this->load->view('sidebar');
$this->load->view('footer');
}
}
/* End of file login.php */
/* Location: ./application/controllers/login.php */

LuckyFella73 - you are right (and JuanitoDelCielo). At first, I did not see the relationship to my project. But after looking at the code a little closer, I see what Juanito was getting at. Tried it and it works. The form initiates and processes through the same controller/method. I see that now. Thanks to both of you!! Thanks a lot - that ends two days of recursive drudge and now I can get back to work!!!
[eluser]cominus[/eluser]
Just in case anyone else needs this - here is what the controller now looks like:
Code: <?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
class Login extends CI_Controller {
function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
}
function index()
{
$this->load->helper('form');
$this->load->library('form_validation');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('member_email','Your Email','trim|required|valid_email');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('password','Password','trim|required|md5');
if ($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE)
{
$data['page_title'] = 'Login';
$data['page_heading'] = 'Login to the Bomra';
$this->load->view('header', $data);
$this->load->view('loginview', $data);
} else {
$data['page_title'] = 'Loggedin';
$data['page_heading'] = 'You Are Logged-In to the Bomra';
$this->load->view('header', $data);
$this->load->view('loggedinview', $data);
$this->load->view('sidebar');
}
$this->load->view('footer');
}
}
/* End of file login.php */
/* Location: ./application/controllers/login.php */
And the form looks like:
Code: <div id="form_login">
<?php echo validation_errors();?>
<?php echo form_open('login/'); ?>
<?php echo form_fieldset('Login Form'); ?><br /><br />
<?php echo form_label('Member Email','member_email'); ?>
<?php $email_data = array(
'name' => 'member_email',
'id' => 'member_email',
'value' => set_value('member_email'),
'maxlength' => '60',
'size' => '30'
);
echo form_input($email_data);
?><br /><br />
<?php echo form_label('Password','password'); ?>
<?php $password_data = array(
'name' => 'password',
'id' => 'password',
'value' => '',
'maxlength' => '60',
'size' => '30'
);
echo form_password($password_data);
?><center><br /><br />
<?php echo form_submit('loginsubmit','Submit Login'); ?>
<br /><br /></center>
<?php echo form_fieldset_close(); ?>
<?php echo form_close(); ?>
</div>

Glad to hear you got your script to work!
