If put in a vform tag, the vform will always fail.This is useful e.g. if you put the verify-fail tag in an if tag.

<verify-ok/>

If put in a vform tag, the vform will always be verified.This tag is probably only useful when the name-attribute inside the tag is set. If it is it will force that specific vform-variable as verified ok even if the <vinput>-tag that tested the variable failed.

ignore-if-failed

ignore-if-failed=name

Don't verify if the verification of a named variable failed.
