Problems with Validation - xCav8r - Oct 3rd, 2013
I'm a new user to Form Tools and most likely suffering from user-error. I have utilized the Validation Tab (as seen, for example, here) to mark fields as required. It doesn't seem to have the desired effect. You can test my form here.
Do I also need to modify the content of the rsv.js file for each of the fields I've marked as required?
Any help or direction would be appreciated.
(Edit)
PS. I ran the various checks in the system check module and returned no errors. I'm using core version 2.2.6.

Hi there,
You need to define your validation rules (ex: indicate what fields are mandatory) in your form after you include rsv.js
As an example for your form you would need:
var rules = []; // this stores all the validation rules
rules.push("required,Question1,Please enter your name.");
rules.push("required,Question2,Please enter your company name.");
rules.push("required,Question4,Please enter your email address.");
rules.push("valid_email,Question4,Please enter a valid email address.");
