Hi,

i validate a comment field, therfore i have following rules:

$validation->add_field('message', 'Nachricht', 'required|trim|max_length[400]|htmlentities|valid_string[alpha,dashes,numeric,spaces,quotes,punctuation,newlines,commas,tabs,braces,brackets,utf8]|min_length[5]');

I need to allow dashes, but i already done this and it still not working.

Did i use something wrong?

I don't have a problem with it.

$val = Validation::forge('test');
$val->add_field('message', 'Nachricht', 'required|trim|max_length[400]|htmlentities|valid_string[alpha,dashes,numeric,spaces,quotes,punctuation,newlines,commas,tabs,braces,brackets,utf8]|min_length[5]');

return $val->run(array('message' => 'x-x-x-x')) ? 'PASSED' : $val->show_errors();

Returns 'PASSED', and does not give any validation errors.

This is my code and i got every time that the dashes not working:

$validation = \Fuel\Core\Validation::forge();
$validation->add_field('user_name', 'Name', 'required|trim|valid_string[utf8]|min_length[3]|max_length[70]');
$validation->add_field('email', 'E-Mail Adresse', 'required|trim|valid_email');
$validation->add_field('message', 'Nachricht', 'required|trim|max_length[400]|htmlentities|valid_string[alpha,dashes,numeric,spaces,quotes,punctuation,newlines,commas,tabs,braces,brackets,utf8]|min_length[5]');

if( $validation->run(  ) )
{
    $articles = \Model_Comment::forge( $data );

    if( $articles->save() )
    {
        return \Fuel\Core\Response::redirect( 'comments/index/' . $article_id );
    }
}

sry i allready solved it. it was my mistake. i did work in the wrong file.... thats why it didn´t work...

Unrelated to this problem, but never use the \Fuel\Core namespace.It breaks certain features of the framework. All core classes are available in the global namespace.

I can not reproduce it. This is my test action:

    public function action_test()
    {
        $validation = Validation::forge();
        $validation->add_field('user_name', 'Name', 'required|trim|valid_string[utf8]|min_length[3]|max_length[70]');
        $validation->add_field('email', 'E-Mail Adresse', 'required|trim|valid_email');
        $validation->add_field('message', 'Nachricht', 'required|trim|max_length[400]|htmlentities|valid_string[alpha,dashes,numeric,spaces,quotes,punctuation,newlines,commas,tabs,braces,brackets,utf8]|min_length[5]');

        if( $validation->run())
        {
            var_dump('PASSED', $validation->validated());
        }
        else
        {
            var_dump('FAILED', $validation->show_errors(), $validation->validated());
        }
    }

I created a dummy form to test it, and when I post it, i get

string 'PASSED' (length=6)

array (size=3)
  'user_name' =>

string 'test' (length=4)
'email' => string 'test@example.org' (length=16)
'message' => string 'x-x-x-x-x-x' (length=11)
Are you sure you're form actually posts (method="POST") and not gets by mistake? If it doesn't pass, what does show_errors() gives you?

ah, ok.
