Hi Jan,
I do not think there is a global OFF switch for validation, but where
validation is required you can include the regex validation string of
/./ which means match anything except a null string, or to also accept a
null string then use /.*/
You still need to be aware of when you should put a validation in place
even if it accepts any string.
Regards,

I find the whole validation issue difficult and not well documented
(http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/3754, last updated four hours
ago). How do I put all validation off? I really don need that much security.

I see the problem, just not sure how to fix it. Steve W. provided some
possibilities but that’s probably not the only approach. It would be
helpful if some interested person(s) got together and drafted an RFC.
I think the devs would be in a position to help define implementation
details if the problem is well defined along with a proposed solution.

Hi,
Validation is nowadays needed in quite a many places in a mapfile.
However, we who live outside the English speaking world tend to have
more characters in the alphabet than A to Z. This makes the mapfile
validation idea only half effective because for making things to work
at all with the native data we must accept almost everything that is
non-numeric with wildcards. Are there others who think that this is a
problem?
