    <p>I am using CodeIgniter 2.3.1 and created a <code>form_validation.php</code> file in <code>config</code> and the content is as below.</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php $config = array( array( 'field' =&gt; 'firstname', 'label' =&gt; 'First Name', 'rules' =&gt; 'required' ), array( 'field' =&gt; 'lastname', 'label' =&gt; 'Last Name', 'rules' =&gt; 'required' ), array( 'field' =&gt; 'email', 'label' =&gt; 'Email', 'rules' =&gt; 'required|valid_email|callback_unique_email' ), array( 'field' =&gt; 'password', 'label' =&gt; 'Password', 'rules' =&gt; 'required|matches[confirm_password]' ), array( 'field' =&gt; 'confirm_password', 'label' =&gt; 'Confirm Password', 'rules' =&gt; 'required' ) ); function unique_email($email) { if($email == 'm@gmail.com') { $this-&gt;form_validation-&gt;set_message('unique_email', 'Hello World !'); return false; } } ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>And checking the <code>form_validation</code> in <code>register</code> function of <code>user</code> controller. The code is below.</p> <pre><code>public function register() { $this-&gt;load-&gt;helper('form'); $data['message'] = ''; if($this-&gt;input-&gt;post('submit')) { $this-&gt;load-&gt;library('form_validation'); if($this-&gt;form_validation-&gt;run() == FALSE) { $data['message'] = 'User could not be saved.'; } else { $user_data['firstname'] = $this-&gt;input-&gt;post('firstname'); $user_data['lastname'] = $this-&gt;input-&gt;post('lastname'); $user_data['email'] = $this-&gt;input-&gt;post('email'); $user_data['password'] = md5($this-&gt;input-&gt;post('password')); if($this-&gt;user_model-&gt;insert($user_data)) { if($this-&gt;user_model-&gt;login($user_data)) { $this-&gt;session-&gt;set_flashdata('message', 'User saved successfully.'); redirect('/user', 'refresh'); } } } } $this-&gt;load-&gt;view('user/register', $data); } </code></pre> <p>But I am not getting validation message for the custom method. Please suggest me how to do it?. The work is more appreciated.</p>

    1. COthe custom function belongs in the controller of the function with the form in it.

    2. COLook at Spikers answer below and read manual. Know that eventually you can also put your form validation in the model, and the database functions in the model, and then just return true/false to the controller. if false, all the error message etc functionality of form validation will still work, it does not have to be in the controller.

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.
