Hi all, I've got some simple validation to do (not enough to use one of the form plugins), and have this; // when the form is submitted $('form#checkout').submit( function(){ // if field has something in it, do submit actions, otherwise write out error if( $('input#rxt_forename').val() == '' ){ // add class to change colour $('input#rxt_forename').addClass("required").get(0).focus(); $('input#rxt_forename').siblings("span.error").show(); return false; }else{ $('input#rxt_forename').removeClass("required"); $('input#rxt_forename').siblings("span.error").hide(); } How can i simplify it? I would have thought replacing the input selector with $(this) would work, but it doesn't, and I'm sure the class/siblings processes could be chained... Thanks, Luc Pestille Web Designer
