Hi, I am trying to use CGI:Application's validateRM function to validate my forms. I am able to write a rule for all the form fields for which input is required and here is the code

my ($results,$err_page) = $self->check_rm('sam',{

required => ['systemspcust','smcsystems'],
         optional => ['syswithsrsnetv3'],
         msgs=>{
        any_errors => 'err__',
        prefix=>'err_'
                },
            });
    return $err_page if $err_page;

I am facing problem in two cases -

1. There is a field (eg bonus) which must be entered if user has selected 'Yes' option from a selection option ('Eligible').

2. How can I make sure that user enters only digits in certain field eg. bonusAmt ?

How can I do the above two?

Please help as I am writing my first validateRM script.
