I think you need more than just "Test" in the remote: call. Look at
the jquery validation documentation and the examples he's provided.
For instance, this is my remote:
remote: {
url:
"/rtui/codeigniter/index.php/business_form/dupeCheck",
type: "post",
data: {
action: function() {
return
$("#action").val();
},
bus_id: function() {
return
$("#bus_id").val();
}
}
}
