Hi,
thanks :) How would I reference the name for the rule and message
preferences ?
Using test[] would break the javascript, can I use 'test[]' as the key
value?
Sure, this is legal javascript:
rules: {
'test[]': required
}

Did a workaround that I should have thought of before :), using the provided
submitHandler function.
For those looking for a similar solution, here it is :
$(#Form).validate({
submitHandler: function(form) {
$(.multi).each(function(i){
var val = $(this).attr(name);
$(this).attr(name, val+[]);
}
);
$(form).submit();
}
});
Cheers
Alexander

Will give it a try.

Hi,
For the multi select:
select name=test[] multiple=multiple
option value=oneone/option
option value=twotwo/option
option value=threethree/option
option value=fourfour/option
option value=fivefive/option
/select
This allows you to pass the selected items via a form post and receive
them
as an array.
Same applies for the checkboxes:
Steak:input type=checkbox value=Steak name=food[]
Pizza:input type=checkbox value=Pizza name=food[]
Chicken:input type=checkbox value=Chicken name=food[]
If your serverside prefers that format, thats the way to go. The 1.1
release may have a problem with those, until 1.2, please give the latest
revision a try: http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/plugins/validate/

So either allow the values to be passed as an array or use an unique name for each and allow the grouping of them with another attribute for validation.
