Brian... Good points. I hesitated before sending my "request" because I don't want to be one of those people that just asks for things without giving back. Unfortunately I'm just not all that good at Javascript so any contribution I make in that arena will be nearly worthless.
What I can offer back to the community is testing and proofing. I'm running IE/PC which seems to be the minority in this crowd. I'm a mature professional programmer (just use a different language is all) who does have valuable input on behaviour and user-interaction. It's all give and take and I try to give what I can, just like the people creating these excellent plug-ins. <!----------------//------ andy matthews web developer certified advanced coldfusion programmer ICGLink, Inc.

Subject: Re: [jQuery] Full featured form validation library in jQuery? That's a lot of stuff! Seriously, I think that what is being requested here, more than anything else, is organization. Can we start grouping our code into "plugin packs", or something? One for forms and friends, one for all kinds of visual effects (perhaps a package that groups the "best of the best" visual plugins with Interface?), one for language extensions, and so on. It might even be a Good Thing to version them, and pack them to save space. There are a lot of really great plugins here, but they're not as easily accessible as they can be. For everyone else: All these plugins are done on a largely volunteer basis. This is an unfunded, we-do-this-because-we-love-it open source project. Generally, our response to "I need ___" is "Great! I can't wait to see how it looks after you've written it!" So, don't expect anything huge to be done upon request. But, a lot of useful plugins are already rolling around here. So, don't despair. :) - Brian > One thing I'd also like to request is a complete form widgets plugin.
