[jQuery] Re: jQuery + Validation: submit() is sending multiple form submits
Every time you're doing: you're re-attaching an additional submit event to the form, so it's executing it multiple times every time you submit. What is it you're trying to do? When you define submitHandler for validate, you should be doing whatever you're doing in $(form).submit () inside the submitHandler.

Hmm.. code didn't display properly. I wanted to say, every time you're doing $(form).submit(...) you're re-attaching an additional submit...

[jQuery] Re: jQuery + Validation: submit() is sending multiple form submits
Hi James! Thanks for the quick reply. I'm still confused as to where I should place my $(form).submit(..). so i'm not re-attaching additional submit events? What i'm doing basically is: 1. have Validate pass the form 2. submit the form via ajax The only thing is that the form is always being reused to submit data which causes the symptoms you've identifed...

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.

[jQuery] Re: jQuery + Validation: submit() is sending multiple form submits
Since you wanted do submit by Ajax; $(#form-external-link).validate({ rules: { exlink_url: { required: true, url: true } }, submitHandler: function(form) { $.ajax(...); } }); On Feb 8, 9:50 am, zubin zubin...@yahoo.com wrote: Hi James!
