You can validate address field in CodeIgniter by setting up form validation rules in the controller. Here is an example code on how to validate address field:
- Load form validation library in the constructor of your controller:
1 2 3 4 |
public function __construct() {
parent::__construct();
$this->load->library('form_validation');
}
|
- Set up validation rules for the address field in the controller method where you are processing the form submission:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 |
public function process_form() {
$this->form_validation->set_rules('address', 'Address', 'required');
if ($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE) {
// Form validation failed, show errors
$this->load->view('your_form_view');
} else {
// Form validation passed, process the form data
// Your code to process form submission
}
}
|
- Update your view file to display validation errors for the address field:
1 2 |
<input type="text" name="address" value="<?php echo set_value('address'); ?>">
<?php echo form_error('address'); ?>
|
By following these steps, you can validate the address field in CodeIgniter and display validation errors if the address field is not filled out correctly.
