如何在杂货店中设置自定义验证消息

Question

$crud = new grocery_CRUD();
$crud->set_table('generate_eblskyid');
$crud->set_rules('salt', 'Salt Code','callback_check_salt');
$output = $crud->render();

then in the call back function i did the following

function check_salt($str)
{
   $salt = $_POST['salt'];
   if($salt > 5)
   {
      $this->get_form_validation()->set_message('salt',"Salt value must be less then FIVE");
      return FALSE;
   }
}

When I go to add record if I give a salt value below five the is inserted successfully but when I give a value greater then five it says "An error has occurred in insert" without displaying my custom message.

What I am doing wrong ??

Answer 1

Your check_salt($str) function should be like this

function check_salt($str)
{

   if($str > 5)
   {
      $this->form_validation->set_message('check_salt',"Salt value must be less then FIVE");

      return false;
   }else{
      return true;
   }
}

In set_message function, the callback function name 'check_salt' should be given, not the field name 'salt' This should solve your problem.
