Body
I am using the form validation functionality — it currently doesn't allow a user to enter incorrect username and password parameters when creating an account. But it's meant to bounce the user back to the signup screen. Instead they're brought through to the home screen, and if I use a username that's been used before it goes into the database anyway. Signup controller: <pre><code>class Signup extends CI_Controller { function Signup() { parent::__construct(); $this->load->model('membership'); } function index() { $this->load->view('shared/header'); $this->load->view('account/signuptitle'); $this->load->view('account/signupview'); $this->load->view('shared/footer'); } function register() { $this->load->helper(array('form', 'url')); $this->load->library('form_validation'); $this->form_validation->set_rules('username', 'Username', 'required|min_length[5]|max_length[12]|trim'); $this->form_validation->set_rules('password', 'Password', 'required|md5|trim'); $this->form_validation->set_rules('username', 'Username', 'callback_usernameTaken'); $username = $this->input->post('username'); $password = $this->input->post('password'); if ($this->form_validation->run()) { $this->membership->newUser($username, $password); $this->session->set_userdata('status', 'OK'); $this->session->set_userdata('username', $username); redirect('home'); } if ($this->membership->usernameTaken($username)) { $this->load->view('shared/header'); $this->load->view('account/signuptitle'); $this->load->view('account/signupview'); $this->load->view('shared/footer'); } else { $this->load->view('shared/header'); $this->load->view('account/signuptitle'); $this->load->view('account/signupview'); $this->load->view('shared/footer'); } } } </code></pre> I think the <code>if ($this->membership->usernameTaken($username))</code> statement needs to arranged a certain way could it possibly be an else if statement? Membership Model: <pre><code>class Membership extends CI_Model { function Membership() { parent::__construct(); } function newUser($username, $password) { $newMember = array('username' => $username, 'password' => $password); $insert = $this->db->insert('membership', $newMember); } function usernameTaken($username) { $this->db->select('*')->from('membership')->where('username', $username); $query = $this->db->get(); if ($query->num_rows > 0) { return true; } else { return false; } } </code></pre> Thanks for the help again folks — I've been looking at similar issues on this site but I just found them too confusing

Guidance

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
