No joy there... Here's my code:
// validate signup form on keyup and submit var validator = $("#sourcing").validate(); $("#submit").click(function() { validator.triggerHandler('submit'); rules: { .... }, // end rules messages: { ... } // end messages }); }); }); I'm not getting any JS errors, so I'm going to assume that everything is in order. However, validation still isn't occuring... Oh, how I love Fridays. ;) - justin On Nov 7, 10:47 am, mbraybrook <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Correction: > validator.triggerHandler('submit'); > change to > $('#formid').triggerHandler('submit'); > > M > > On Nov 7, 3:45 pm, mbraybrook <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Try using the triggerhandler function: > > var validator = $("#sourcing").validate(); > > $("#submit").click(function() { > > validator.triggerHandler('submit'); > > > }); > > > Not tested... > > > HTH > > M > > > On Nov 7, 3:41 pm, Justin Kozuch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Hi There, > > > > I've been using the validation plug in for a while now and I love it, > > > but I am stuck on something. > > > > I am trying to validate a form using: > > > > <input type="button" id="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" /> > > > instead of the usual: > > > > <input type="submit" id="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" /> > > > > I tried using: > > > > var validator = $("#sourcing").validate(); > > > $("#submit").click(function() { > > > validator.form(); > > > > }); > > > > to do the validation but that doesn't do anything at all.
