Yes. *smacks head of keyboard* getValues() is being called prior to checking
if the form is valid which is pretty standard:
if (!$form->isValid($data)) {
return false;
}
// do something
I hope there's a big colourful banner in the reference guide that says
"calling getValues receives all files from form when and only when all
elements are valid if and only if you don't call getValues prior to checking
is the form valid".
Thanks. My apologies if I was abrupt.
