Hi.

I am having trouble getting some inline validation working now that I have several global option groups.

My code is:

rules:item_options[standard_sizes]="required" error_handling="inline 
{if error:item_options[standard_sizes]}<p class="error_message">Error: Please select a print option above.</p>{/if} 

This works pefectly if the entry has the standard sizes option, but if it has another option it doesnt work.

I tried this but with no luck:

rules:item_options[standard_sizes]="required" rules:item_options[pano_sizes]="required" error_handling="inline 
{if error:item_options[standard_sizes]}<p class="error_message">Error: Please select a print option above.</p>{/if} 
{if error:item_options[pano]}<p class="error_message">Error: Please select a print option above.</p>{/if} 

My concern is, even if the above worked, if my client added a new group the validation wouldnt work on it.

How can I have the validation work on which ever global option group the entry uses?

Thanks

This specific type of validation is not something that’s built into cartthrob… essentially dynamic rule setting. I’ll have to think about this one. There’s not going to be a solution in the short term. A custom extension to the add to cart system could be created to handle the advanced validation… but the standard system won’t handle dynamic rules based on available options.

We’re moving away from the forums, though not entirely and not immediately. Lack of support lately is coincidental to that. Unfortunately we’ve had a bad month with it, but we do not forsee that we will have any continued problems with support through our portal going forward, or on forums while we’re still transitioning. We will send out a newsletter and make additional notifications through twitter and other outlets over the coming weeks.

Moving forward; things returning to normal.

Okay Chris. I will use JS for this instead.
