Thanks Solved. But I have a question, with that said, 1.3 version and the newer--it all seem much easier than the older version, seems like less codes required...
Or is it I'm missing something ? All I have to do is just add in the additional array into my existing username validation array instead of creating a new function called beforeValidate(). Am I right ? Just to ensure because I'm quite new to this and I'm programming challenged. This will help to clarify my upcoming tasks.
