A bit of an odd one...
Server-side email validation isn't working for some strange reason. I've tried changing the field name in case it conflicts with an already existing variable but no joy. The field is correctly repopulated in the event of a validation error elsewhere; it's merely refusing to validate (i.e. it's not being registered as a rule).
Everything else works a treat otherwise:
Update:
Seems to be a problem with "valid_email" param; it works when i use this:
but not this:
?
Update 2:
What a moron (me)! Just checked your validation script:
I need to include BOTH rules to the field concurrently: valid_email AND required.
Makes perfect sense.

</html>Update:
Seems to be a problem with "valid_email" param; it works when i use this:
PHP Code:
$rules[] = "required,email,Please enter a valid email address.";
but not this:
PHP Code:
$rules[] = "valid_email,email,Please enter a valid email address.";
?
Update 2:
What a moron (me)! Just checked your validation script:
PHP Code:
// doesn't fail if field is empty
case "valid_email":
$regexp="/^[a-z0-9]+([_\\.-][a-z0-9]+)*@([a-z0-9]+([\.-][a-z0-9]+)*)+\\.[a-z]{2,}$/i";
if (isset($fields[$field_name]) && !empty($fields[$field_name]) && !preg_match($regexp, $fields[$field_name]))
$errors[] = $error_message;
break;
I need to include BOTH rules to the field concurrently: valid_email AND required.
Makes perfect sense.
