Hey Jorn
ignore: ".checkbox :hidden" and ignore: ":hidden" - neither works for
me. I have also tried ignore: "#CoverAgreed_"
which didnt work. I wonder whether the underscore is recognized ?
I am validating it by giving ti a required rule like os -
'data[Cover][agreed]': {
required:true
}
Is that the correct way to test a checkbox?
I must apologise as I posted another message esterday, as google
groups didnt show me my post had worked, even 30 minutes later!
thanks,
Luke
