    <p>i'm trying to setup a codeigniter form with different error messages.</p> <p>set_message(rule, msg) is setting up a message for the whole form.</p> <p>I need:</p> <pre><code>$this-&gt;form_validation-&gt;set_rules('name', 'First Name', 'required'); $this-&gt;form_validation-&gt;set_message('name', 'required', 'Enter your Name'); $this-&gt;form_validation-&gt;set_rules('second', 'Variables', 'required'); $this-&gt;form_validation-&gt;set_message('second', 'required', 'The Variables are required'); </code></pre> <p>Adding the %s into the message string is no help in this case, since the messages have to be completely different.</p> <p>Possibly I could do something like:</p> <h2>controller</h2> <pre><code>$this-&gt;form_validation-&gt;set_rules('name', 'Name', 'required|min_length[6]|max_length[12]'); $this-&gt;form_validation-&gt;set_rules('second', 'Variables', 'required|min_length[3]|max_length[5]'); $this-&gt;form_validation-&gt;set_message('required', 'required'); $this-&gt;form_validation-&gt;set_message('min_length', 'short'); $this-&gt;form_validation-&gt;set_message('max_length', 'long'); </code></pre> <h2>view</h2> <pre><code>switch(form_error('name')) { case '&lt;p&gt;required&lt;/p&gt;': echo 'Enter your Name'; break; case '&lt;p&gt;short&lt;/p&gt;': echo 'min length 6'; break; case '&lt;p&gt;long&lt;/p&gt;': echo 'min length 12'; break; } switch(form_error('second')) { case '&lt;p&gt;required&lt;/p&gt;': echo 'The Variables are required'; break; case '&lt;p&gt;short&lt;/p&gt;': echo 'min length 3'; break; case '&lt;p&gt;long&lt;/p&gt;': echo 'min length 5'; break; } </code></pre> <p>But isn't there a smarter way to do it?</p>

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.
