I have looked at this for 5 hours now... stuck

I created a registration form, if the email exists, I display the error message. Sounds simple, but I can't get this to work. I'm at my wits end.

I created this simple example to show what I'm trying to get down. Right now, every submission shows the error message.

Thanks,

Validate:

$totalRows_checkRS

not:

$row_checkRS['UserID']

your current validation would only pass if the UserID of the user was -1 or 0, which will never happen and it always says it isn't valid... like you mention.

If you validate the number of rows instead of the row result I think it will work:

$WAFV_Errors .= WAValidateNM($totalRows_checkRS . "",-1,0,"",",.",true,1);
