Hi!

I try to validate a radio button and two fields. My form looks like:

<input tabindex="7" type="text" name="contact[telefoon]">
<input tabindex="8" type="text" name="contact[email]">
<input tabindex="9" name="contact[contact]" id="contact" type="radio" value="telefoon" checked>Telefoon.
  <input name="contact[contact]" type="radio" value="email">E-mail.

In the tab =Validation=, at =12- validate-one-required=, I added "contact".
In =validation.js= I changed the code under =validate-one-required= to handle the array contact[], but it does not work.

I also tried in the tab =Validation=: "contact[]", but only something like "contact[contact]" seems to pass one index of the array.

How can I pass the array to validation.js?

I did this just by using the forms validation tab. But I used the mootools validation.

There was actually an update to the .js file which once I used that it worked. So I uploaded that file (there was a thread about it where Bob posted the new file, link below), then under validation just check enable validation- yes, validation library - mootools, then put my check box field in the radio/checkbox area. If you have more than one to validate, there is information here:

The update to the moovalidation.js is also there.

Not sure if this helps, but maybe that thread will.

Hi Zilvermeeuw,

See Cheryl's reply for the validation. 'Validate-one-required' is intended to work for arrays of radio buttons or checkboxes. I dont know if it will work in a mixture of tags like this.
