The opposite of valid CSS properties are invalid CSS properties.
Browsers don't have to do anything in particular with invalid CSS or
HTML. :-) Plus, it won't validate.
You could use the jQuery Metadata plugin and store your properties in
a script block, for example:
<script type="application/json">
{
"a1Type": "Date",
"a1ValidMesg":"Please enter a valid date",
"Validate":"@@Internal code to be send to server via Ajax@@"
}
</script>
