Re: [jQuery] Re: validation: how do I call a function to perform after a validation is done?

[Atkinson, Sarah]

Ok I'm using this
  invalidHandler: function(form, validator)  {
PossitionStuff.possitionErrors();  },
And it works but it doesn't fire till the second validation I need it to fire 
on the first go around too

Hmm, i'm not really sure how to pull that off.  I would look into the
showErrors option or possibly the Valid function.
