No -- The rule name is used in keys of the assoc array returned by getMessages() and getErrors(), because messages correspond to validator failures, not individual input data fields. You need to request the field value by the field name, not the rule name. Because multiple rules might have been applied to the field before it is ready to be retrieved. The value is returned after it has been filtered and validated by all applicable rules. Regards, Bill Karwin
