[jQuery] Redefine validation rules dynamically

[Ivan Sanchez]

  Hi guys,

  Is there any way to redefine validation rules for a form in runtime?
I'm trying to redefine my validation based on a radio button using
something like:

jQuery("#myRadioButton").change(function(){
        var selectedOption = jQuery("#myRadioButton:checked").val();
        switch(selectedOption){
                case '1':
                        var validator =jQuery("#myForm").validate({
                                rules: {
                                        'fieldOne': {required: true, maxLength: 
6}
                                },
                                messages: {
                                        'fieldOne': {required: 'fieldOne 
invalid'}
                                }
                        })
                        validator.resetForm();
                        break;
                case '2':
                        var validator =jQuery("#myForm").validate({
                                rules: {
                                        'fieldTwo': {required: true, maxLength: 
6}
                                },
                                messages: {
                                        'fieldTwo': {required: 'fieldOne 
invalid'}
                                }
                        })
                        validator.resetForm();
                        break;
        }
});

It doesn't work. Each time I select an option in my radio button I'd
like to use only the rules defined for that specific option. What
happens in fact is that after the first selection the rules aren't
modified at all.

Any ideas?
