Wow, very fast answers :-)

Can a custom validator get access to several fields of the Form?

For example, if i make a checkClosingDate validator ,
how can my validator read both the ClosingDate (the date to validate)
and the "Fixing Date" (support data)
- in the creation case where Fixing date is another field of the
SQLForm
- in the update case where Fixing date is an attribute of the record
being updated

Regards
