you would want to look at the control file for cutomers and look at the form validation funtion

ok im a bit confused... is that the file
/catalog/language/english/controller/account_create.php

so i edit:

// Text

$_['text_account_already'] = 'If you already have an account with us, please login at the login page.';

$_['text_your_details']    = 'Your Personal Details';

$_['text_your_address']    = 'Your Address';

$_['text_newsletter']      = 'Newsletter';

$_['text_your_password']  = 'Your Password';

$_['text_agree']          = 'I agree to %s';



// Entry

$_['entry_firstname']      = 'First Name:';

$_['entry_lastname']      = 'Last Name:';

$_['entry_email']          = 'E-Mail:';

$_['entry_company']        = 'Company:';

$_['entry_address_1']      = 'Address 1:';

$_['entry_address_2']      = 'Address 2:';

$_['entry_postcode']      = 'Post Code:';

$_['entry_city']          = 'City:';

$_['entry_country']        = 'Country:';

$_['entry_zone']          = 'Region / State:';

$_['entry_telephone']      = 'Telephone:';

$_['entry_fax']            = 'Fax:';

$_['entry_newsletter']    = 'Subscribe:';

$_['entry_password']      = 'Password:';

$_['entry_confirm']        = 'Password Confirm:';

well your path shows clearly that is the language file for the controller file

also no reference to that function i said... so no that is not the correct file.

Have a look at this for the file location and some further changes I think should be made. http://forum.opencart.com/index.php/top ... ml#msg4153
