SCENARIO
You want to validate user input on one of your fields but there's NO Regular Expression (RegEx) built in to COOK to suit your needs
SO HOW DO YOU ADD YOUR OWN? Thanks to COOK, it's SIMPLE!!!
  1. In the Tables tab of the builder, click on the Properties for your chosen field
  2. In the Validator section of the popup, click select Custom
  3. Give your new validation rule a descriptive & unique name (NO SPACES OR SPECIAL CHARS RECOMMENDED)
  4. Type or paste your Regular Expression into the Regular exp. field
That's it!

Awards for the best Joomla app. This product is gonna win an award for this amazing job. Cook Self Service is the the best application from all over the Joomla universe ! It brings Joomla to a professional level really advanced for developers. It is a real fun to develop with it. The ACL part and security checks implementation are just... so much hours saved. I can now concentrate myself more on the design part and the creative works. Thank you so much. Guys I offer you all my congratulation ! Keep up the works because Joomla is needing it to increase the quality of extensions availables on the JED. I also learned a lot because I can see how to code at the proper place and I found all my answers reading the forum.
