Didn't know that. Thanks for pointing that out Dan (I am new to jquery had been using prototype till now). So, just the packed version of the file is good enough? And using that I can define the rules such as - $("#myform").validate({ event: "keyup" rules: { firstname: { required: true }, age: { required: "#firstname:blank", number: true, minValue: 3 }, password: { required: function() { return $("#age").val() < 18; }, minLength: 5, maxLength: 32 } }, messages { password: { required: "Your password is required because you are not yet 18 years or older." minLength: "Please enter a password at least 5 characters long.", maxLength: "Please enter a password no longer then 32 characters long." }, age: "Please specify your age as a number (at least 3)." } }); On 5/15/07, Dan G.

The only thing that is required is jquery.validate.js. The packed version of the file is only 6k. The meta.js file is only required if you want to define validation rules using the class attribute of your tags. The other libraries are used just for layout in the examples. -Dan
