I accidentally sent my reply direct to the first responder, here is a
summary re-post:

Aside from the remote= tag on the form field as described in the
original post, there isn't much to the form itself.  The only thing I
left out that might be of value is the script snippet that initializes
the validation, here it is:

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#form1").validate({messages: {email: {required:"Please use a
different e-mail address."}},errorClass: "invalid",errorPlacement:
function(error, element){
                            error.parent().insertBefore(element);
                    }}
);
});
</script>

I tested the form under FF 3.0.5 and IE 7.0
