Sorry to bug you again Justin, I'm trying to set up a group (creditcard exp Mo. and Yr. So I have two fields accountExpiration_M and accountExpiration_Y. In my DO I declare: var $fb_preDefGroups = array("accountExpiration_M" => "Expiration Date","accountExpiration_Y" => "Expiration Date"); This works fine for rendering, but durring validation I get: MESSAGE: QuickForm Error: nonexistent html element DEBUG INFO: Element 'accountExpiration_M' does not exist in HTML_QuickForm::addRule() CODE: -3 I'm not able to track this down. any Ideas?

Try using a group name which has no spaces. This could be the problem. To set the display value for it use fb_fieldLabels. Ex: var $fb_preDefGroups = array('accountExpiration_M' => 'expDate', 'accountExpiration_Y' => 'expDate'); var $fb_fieldLabels = array('expDate' => 'Expiration Date'); Hi Justin, thanks for all your help. You really are a blessing. I'm still having an issue, but this time it's because of

Element 'accountExpiration_M' does not exist in HTML_QuickForm::addRule() I'm guessing this is because the field is rendered as ExpirationDate[accountExpiration_M] and FB can no longer find it. But I didn't mess with the QF object, I used the fb_preDefGroups property and it did it for me.... throw me a line if you have time. Thanks Jacob
