Look at the examples in the docs/ directory or search the archives for date validation with QuickForm, the process would be the same for image validation: 1. Create the validation function 2. Register it in QuickForm (registerRule) 3. Add it for the file element (addRule) 4. Call validate() Good luck, Bertrand Mansion Mamasam
