    copied!<p>I'm trying to figure out how to get this zend form to validate. I don't understand:</p> <p>Are the addValidator() arguments specific validators? Is there a list somewhere of those validators?</p> <p>I've got this in the forms/contact.php:</p> <p>class Application_Form_Contact extends Zend_Form {</p> <pre><code>public function init() { $this-&gt;setAction('index/process'); $this-&gt;setMethod('post'); $name = new Zend_Form_Element_Text('name'); $name-&gt;setLabel('Name:'); // $name-&gt;addValidator('alnum'); $name-&gt;setRequired(true); $email = new Zend_Form_Element_Text('email'); $email-&gt;setLabel('Email:')-&gt;setRequired(true); $confirm = new Zend_Form_Element_Text('confirm'); $confirm-&gt;setLabel('Confirm Email:')-&gt;setRequired(true); $phone = new Zend_Form_Element_Text('phone'); $phone-&gt;setLabel('Phone:')-&gt;setRequired(true); $subject = new Zend_Form_Element_Select('subject'); $subject-&gt;setLabel('Subject:')-&gt;setRequired(true); $subject-&gt;setMultiOptions(array('Performance'=&gt;'Performance', 'Workshop'=&gt;'Workshop', 'Other'=&gt;'Other' )); $message = new Zend_Form_Element_Textarea('message'); $message-&gt;setLabel('Message:')-&gt;setRequired(true); $message-&gt;setAttrib('rows','6'); $message-&gt;setAttrib('cols','30'); $submit = new Zend_Form_Element_Submit('Submit'); $this-&gt;addElements(array( $name, $email, $confirm, $phone, $subject, $message, $submit )); $this-&gt;setElementDecorators(array ('ViewHelper', array(array('data' =&gt; 'HtmlTag'), array('tag' =&gt; 'td')), array('Label' , array('tag' =&gt; 'td')), array(array('row' =&gt; 'HtmlTag') , array('tag' =&gt; 'tr')) )); $submit-&gt;setDecorators(array('ViewHelper', array(array('data' =&gt; 'HtmlTag'), array('tag' =&gt; 'td')), array(array('emptyrow' =&gt; 'HtmlTag'), array('tag' =&gt; 'td', 'placement' =&gt; 'PREPEND')), array(array('row' =&gt; 'HtmlTag') , array('tag' =&gt; 'tr')) )); $this-&gt;setDecorators(array( 'FormElements', array('HtmlTag' , array('tag' =&gt; 'table' , 'class' =&gt; 'formTable')), 'Form' ) ); } } </code></pre> <p>my controller is:</p> <pre><code>public function indexAction() { $this-&gt;view-&gt;form = new Application_Form_Contact(); } public function processAction() { // $this-&gt;view-&gt;form = new Application_Form_Contact(); // if ($this-&gt;_request-&gt;isPost()) { $formData = $this-&gt;_request-&gt;getPost(); // echo 'success'; $this-&gt;view-&gt;data = $formdata; } else { // $form-&gt;populate($formData); } } </code></pre> <p>I'm a newbie, so I'm probably making some obvious errors that I don't see. I'm trying to do basic validation:</p> <ul> <li>all fields must be filled out </li> <li>all html gets stripped</li> <li>email and confirm</li> <li>email fields must match </li> <li>email must be valid format.</li> </ul> <p>Any help would be greatly appreciated!</p>
