Still no go... below is my code. I just want to pop a dialog to ask
the user if they are sure they want to leave the company name blank.
The field is not required. I thought it would be easier than this? I
can't get teh addMethod to work or fire at all on validation.
//validates the form
var validator = frmSubmittal.validate({
debug: false,
focusCleanup: false,
focusInvalid: false,
onfocusout: false,
onkeyup: false,
errorPlacement:
function(error, element) {error.prependTo
( element.parents("div.ctrlHolder"));},
errorElement:'div',
errorClass:'valerror',
rules: {
restitutionaddress: {required: "#sameAsBusinessAddress
[checked='false']"},
restitutioncity: {required: "#sameAsBusinessAddress
[checked='false']"},
restitutionstate: {required: "#sameAsBusinessAddress
[checked='false']"},
restitutionzipcode: {required: "#sameAsBusinessAddress
[checked='false']"},
company:true
}
});
$.validator.addMethod( "company", function(value, element)
{alert
("hello"); return false;}, "Enter a Company Name" );
