Re: Question Regarding HTML_QuickForm

I figured out how to add client side as well as server side rule. I have to add two rules : $form->addRule('MyTextBox', 'Your name is required', 'required','','client'); $form->addRule('MyTextBox', 'Your name is required', 'required','','server'); Can anybody explain me how to make use of server side validation (Point no 1) when method is post and action is done by using some other php script?
