Form Validation (greater_than, less_than)

[eluser]xerosis[/eluser]
In the CI guide:
http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-gui...ation.html

We have two rules (greater_than, less_than) but they seem to not be working.

Not only are they not working but in the Language section there is also nothing created for them.

How come? How can I get them to work?

To get some "cool" feature, you may want to use Reactor instead Core. For example, in latest commit (by Phil) at Form_validation class, now it allow you to add 'is_unique' as validation rule.

I don't know what you mean when you say they don't work, but I came across this:

greater_than Returns FALSE if the form element is less than the parameter value or not numeric.

Going by the description one has to resort to guessing/trying what happens when the form element is exactly the parameter value.

I'd like to propose the description becomes

Returns FALSE if the form element is less than or equal to the parameter value, or not numeric.

he means they always return true. I have a project where I need to use one, and it does not appear to work. it never returns a validation error.

looking at the source code for the Form_validation library, there are no less_than or greater_than functions, while there are functions corresponding with all the other validation rules.
