Validation Plugin Not Working

Validation Plugin Not Working

I've been trying to get this working for hours and can't work out why it's not working - can anybody help?  Nothing happens at all, no validation or anything!

index.php:
  2. <?php
  3. include '../db/connect.php';
  4. include 'course_finder.php';
  5. ?>
