James,
Maybe it is a question of timing?
When I hard-coded class="required" on the input fields I received the
desired effect. However, I want to get this effect based on business
rules on my object model.
Version 1.3.2 that comes as part of the asp.net mvc releases does not
contain any changes to the code. Something I forgot to mention (did
more research) and the xVal code adds the class="required" attribute
via the addClass method to the input field at runtime based on jQuery
validation (addon?) rules. I have verified using Firebug that the
class is being applied to the elements correctly.
