i am using drupal_validate_form on a node listing page . it is validating it correctly only for 1st item after that it is not checking validation.
here is my code
foreach($result as $r){
$node_form = (object) array(
'uid' => $user->uid,
'type' => 'MY_CONTENT_TYPE',
'language' => LANGUAGE_NONE,
);
$form = drupal_get_form('MY_CONTENT_TYPE_node_form',$node_form);
$form['#submit'] = array('#type' => 'submit', '#value' => t('Next'));
$old_fs = @unserialize($r->form_state);
$old_fs['values']['uid'] = $user->uid;
$node = (object) array(
'uid' => $user->uid,
'type' => 'MY_CONTENT_TYPE',
'language' => LANGUAGE_NONE,
);
node_object_prepare($node);
$form_state = array();
$form_state['build_info']['args'] = array($node);
$form_state['values'] = $old_fs['values'];
$form_state['values']['op'] = t('Save');
$form_state['submitted'] = 1;
$form_state['complete form'] = array();
$form_state['triggering_element'] = array('#parents'=>array('next'),'#button_type'=>'submit');
unset($form['#token']);
drupal_validate_form('MY_CONTENT_TYPE_node_form', $form, $form_state);
$errors = form_get_errors();
$noOfError = 'empty';
if (!empty($errors)) {
$noOfError = count($errors);
}
form_clear_error();
}
thank You in advance
Finally i have to reset need_validation in $form .
Because every time form get for validation it will chack $form['#needs_validation']
in _form_validate()
;
so i added another line after
$form = drupal_get_form('MY_CONTENT_TYPE_node_form',$node_form);
$form['#needs_validation'] = TRUE;
and it will validate every form in that loop
