Try this:
$("#form-external-link").validate({
rules: {
exlink_url: {
required: true,
url: true
}
},
submitHandler: function(form) {
alert('This will pop up only once as it should');
form.submit();
}
});
It triggers the native submit event just once, without binding an
additional submit event or, even worse, triggering the validation to
run again.
