I think this calls for a new component Zend_Validate_Branch that would allow the validator chain to branch depending on values of other form fields. Anyone agree?

You can write a custom validator that accepts a $context array as the second parameter to filter() which will contain the rest of the forms values. You can then test the checkboxes at that point. -- Hector On Tue, Dec 22, 2009 at 5:54 AM, Guillaume ORIOL <gor...@technema.fr> wrote: Here is a schematic view of the form I have: (*) choice 1 [X] option 1 [_] option 2 [_] option 3 ( ) choice 2 When "choice 1" is checked, at least one of the three options should be checked.

Does anybody have a solution for it? Thanks -- Guillaume ORIOL
