CodeIgniter Validation in Library does not accept callback.
- by Lukas Oppermann
Hey guys,
my problem is the following: I am writing a login library.
This library has a function _validation() and this uses the validation library to validate the data.
With using normal validation methods it works just fine, but using a callback function just does not work. It is not called.
I call it like this.
$this->CI->form_validation->set_rules('user', 'Username', 'required|callback__check_user');
The functions name is _check_user and it uses the username _check_user($user).
The function itself works fine and I can also call it in the class ($this-_check_user('username')) with a working result.
I am guessing, there might be a problem because I am not workin in a controller so I have a CI instance $this-CI instead of just the original instance $this-
Does anyone have a clue how to fix this?
Thanks in advance.
