I have a problem using validation plugin 1.2.1 and jquery 1.2.3 Every time the user clicks submit, the script adds a new error element, leaving the previous one, so I end up with error elements stacking up one after another. Also, the script doesn't remove the error if user fills the field correctly and then moves on to the next one
Here is my code: <script type='text/javascript'> $().ready(function() { $('#signupform').validate({ errorElement: 'div', rules: { name: { required: true, minlength: 2 }, email: { required: true, email: true }, phone: { required: true, } }, messages: { name: { required: 'Please enter your name', minLength: 'Your name must consist of at least 2 characters' }, email: 'Please enter a valid email address', phone: 'Please enter your phone number' } }); $('input.phone').mask('(999) 999-9999', {placeholder:'_'}); }); </script>
