addUploadedImage(string $field, string $errorMsg = null, bool $emptyIsOk = true)

Adds a test to a field to ensure that, if set, it is a valid uploaded image.

addRequired(string $field, string $errorMsg = null, string $validate = self::VALID_NOT_EMPTY)

Adds a required field to the form helper object. This will then be typically used in conjunction with the test() method to see if the test is passed.

addUploadedFile(string $field, string $errorMsg = null, bool $emptyIsOk = true)

Adds a test to a field to ensure that, if set, it is a valid uploaded file.

addInteger(string $field, string $errorMsg = null, bool $emptyIsOk = true)

Adds a required field and tests that it is integer only.

addRequiredToken($value, $errorMsg = null)

No description

addRequiredEmail(string $field, string $errorMsg = null)

Adds a required email address to the suite of tests to be run.

setFiles()

Sets the data files array.

setData(array $data)

An associative array that we setup to validate against. Typical usage is $val->setData($_POST);.

invalidate($message)
