Hi,

i have a validation class which needs improving. If I require some custom validation I need to specify a custom function. It works a bit like this:

1. The controller tells the validation that a custom validation function is required.
2. The controller runs the validation.
3. --- Gets iffy here ---
4. Validation class creates a new instance of the controller class....
5. Validation class runs controller->custom_validation_function()
6. Validation class returns true / false

Is there someway that I can alter this to do something like this?

$validation = new validation; // Insert rules here. $validation->function() = $this->function();

By doing this I could get rid of the step of creating an unneeded class instance.
