CodeIgniter extended rules

A set of useful form validation rules, focused on file uploading (and some more). English corrections and other languages are welcome.

Written by Joseba Juaniz (@Patroklo) and Jeroen van Meerendonk (@jeroen_bz). Original code written by devbro (devbro@devbro.com).

Requirements

Codeigniter 2.x Php 5.2 or above

(Codeigniter 3.x support at: https://github.com/Patroklo/codeigniter3.x-extended-rules)

Installation

Just put copy the files into your server using the same folder structure. If you already have an english language file, open it and add the content of /application/language/english/form_validation_lang.php, and do the same with the other languages.
