Verify a node editing form.

This is a hook used by node modules. It is called to allow the module to verify that the node is in a format valid to post to the site. Errors should be set with form_set_error().

Übergabeparameter

$node The node to be validated.

$form The node edit form array.

Rückgabewert

None.

To validate nodes of all types (not just nodes of the type(s) defined by this module), use hook_nodeapi() instead.

Changes made to the $node object within a hook_validate() function will have no effect. The preferred method to change a node's content is to use hook_nodeapi($op='presave') instead. If it is really necessary to change the node at the validate stage, you can use function form_set_value().

For a detailed usage example, see node_example.module.
