Hi @laurent
ACF v4 uses JS to perform all validation so I can’t offer an easy solution. Good news is that PHP validation is part of ACF v5 (coming soon)!
For now, you can use the update_value function to run your validation, however you will need to come up with a smart way to save any validation errors to the DB, then on page load, display the errors.
Sorry,
Thanks
