[jQuery] Re: submit a form with a link

[Soledad Zubiri]

Hi, my english is not good enough, I hope I can explain it to you!!!

I`m using this to validate:

$(document).ready(function() {
 var validator = $("#form1").bind("invalid-form.validate", function() {

   $("#summary").html(""+
  ""+
  "");
  }).validate({
  rules: {
   errorContainer: $("#summary"),
   input1: "required",
   input2: "required",
   input3: "required"
 }
  });
  });


I have the submit button to validate that the 3 inputs are complete and
redirect to page1.jsp,
and the submit link that checks that only input1 is complete to opens a
pop-up window.

Thank! Sole.

First off, why do you have an submit button and a submit link? Second,
what are you using to validate the form?

Thanks Jörn!! It works!

But I continue with a problem because the link Submit has to validate that
only input1 of the
form is not empty. And the submit button validates that the three inputs are
no empty.
So I think that I will have two validations for the same form. How can I do
that?

I have a form with 3 inputs:







Submit link


Thanks again! Sole

This will not work because you are calling the submit method for the
form, not any validation script... Also, is there any reason you are
using the onclick event handler?

Please provide more of your code so we can see exactly what you are
trying to accomplish...

Try this:

$("#submit").click(function() {
  $("#myForm").submit();
});
Submit
