[TYPO3-mvc] Extra validation in create and redirect back to new

[Henrik Møller Rasmussen]

Hello again,

I found the right solution I think :)

Added the argument to the createAction and added a custom @validate for 
the argument to the createAction.

Extbase and fluid just keep getting better the more you use it :)
