With the 1.5 release you will be able to use this instead:
$("#myform").validate({
rules: {
username: {
required: true,
remote: {
url: "checkusername.php",
type: "post"
data: {
email: function() { return $("#email").val() }
}
}
}
}
});
In other words, you can override all settings that $.ajax supports by
replacing the current remote: "url" with remote: {url:"url"} and add
whatever you need.
You can try it out now
(http://jqueryjs.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/plugins/validate/) or wait
for the next release.
Feedback is welcome!
