I have a multi-page form that ends in the last page as a transaction to mysql. In the transaction there are a number of steps, i.e. query1 = Insert into ".......... run query1 query2 = Insert into "......... run query 2 query3 = Insert into ".......... run query 3 Then an if / else statement that checks if all queries were sucessful (commit) or else (rollback) I need to add server side validation So my thoughts are : 1- Do it on a page by page (form by form) basis, meaning user can't go past page1 if there are form error. I'm just not sure in this case where the validation would go. Since 1st page is set on submit to go to 2nd page. Would I put the validations on page/form2 and then it would print out errors directing back to form1 ? 2- Last page validation - waiting till the transaction page to do validation. Should I set this up as one block on top that checks all the submitted form values, or pepper throughout all the transactions ? Hope my question is clear and am open to any suggestions or ideas.
