Nevermind, I figured out that my the Zend Studio's framework reference file is out of sync with the 1.9 release code , because it thinks its still 1.8 - grrr.
So the INVALID didn't exist in the project reference but did exists on the devel box.

I've been using the preset const values in the Zend_Validate(functions) as reference for custom error messages. Like this : $fname = new Zend_Form_Element_Text('first_name'); $fname->setLabel('First Name') ->addValidator( 'regex', // validator type true, // break chain on fail array( '/[a-z\'\-]/is', // regex test 'messages' => array( // error messages Zend_Validate_Regex::INVALID => 'First Name contains invalid characters.', Zend_Validate_Regex::NOT_MATCH => 'First Name contains invalid characters.' ) ) ); What's the difference between INVALID and NOT_MATCH and, why is the INVALID not in the $_messageTemplates ?

Which type has the value you want to validate ? Try a var_dump of the value.
