Jorn,

Does your plug-in offer on-blur validation?

That is really slick.  I like the check boxes after it validates.  It
looks like you are very well versed in jQuery.  This is my first
script, but I haven't had time to test it yet.  It took me two days
(well evenings) to research the right strategy to get that far.  I am
hoping to submit the form for server-side validation, this way I can
use this for any form validation, I just have to change the server
side validation response.  From the server-side validation, I am
hoping to send a JSON array then dynamically update the corresponding
div with the key name to the key value.  Will the following update the
div with the id name of variable err_id with the value contained by
err_message?   $(err_id).val() = err_message;  In the past I've wrote
my own JS like the following:
document.getElementById('err_provcode').innerHTML = err_provcode;

I also work in the Health Care industry on the billing side.  I need
to do multiple validations combining different dependencies based on
database queries for Medical Coding Data Entry on the front-end.

Thanks,
Nishan

I've done something similar to this, where validation is may be run at
either field level or on form submit, or both (default is both, can be
overridden by invocation setting, below).

http://beta.ksscholl.com/jquery/formvalidate.html

Routine is invoked by the following snippet in the HEAD of the
document:

$("#myFormSample").jqValidate({
  // validateAt : "both", // "blur" | "submit" | "both"
  passMin : 6
  });

The validation script itself is the bottom half of the following:

http://beta.ksscholl.com/jquery/js/jqforms.js

and checks that required fields have data, as well as various
specialized fields have proper formatting and such.  I'm quite sure
that it could be cleaned up considerably by anyone more versed than
myself in the intricacies of jQuery, but I'm pretty pleased thus far.

Wouldn't the $("#my-form [EMAIL PROTECTED]'input']").blur(function() { be
my trigger?

I would like to validate as the user tabs through the form. How would

I not run the function if the field just tabbed from is blank?

Thanks for your validation of my script. Nishan On Oct 13, 7:30 am, "Jörn Zaefferer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Validation should always hook into the submit event, eg.
$(#myform").submit(function() { ... });
That handles both clicking the submit button as well as hitting enter
while an input field has focus.

Apart from that, the form plugin handles submitting forms via ajax and

handling the response quite well, including file

Hello,

I have never written a Jquery script, but have, over the last few

days, compiled the following, but was hoping someone could look over
this to see if I had problems.

$(document).ready(function () {

       $("#my-form [EMAIL PROTECTED]'input']").blur(function() {
               var queryString = $.("#my-form").formSerialize();
               $.post("/path/to/your/validation.php", queryString,
function(validation_errors) {
                       // do something like changing a css class, disable 
submit...
                       $.each(validation_errors, function(err_id, err_message) {
                       $(err_id).val() = err_message;
                       }
               )};
       });
)});

Thanks,

Nishan
