Jörn,
Would it be something like this in the head?
jQuery.validator.addClassRules({
brochure: { accept: pdf },
movie: { accept: mov|mpg|mpeg|fla|mp4 },
photo: { accept: jpg|gif }
});
Then in the body?
<input type="file" name="somethingdynamic" class="photo" />
<input type="file" name="somethingdynamic" class="movie" />
<input type="file" name="somethingdynamic" class="brochure" />
Thanks
Steffan
