[jQuery] jQuery Validate -- how to require series of checkboxes when named as array[]
I have a working example of jQuery validate working in the link below.
The newsletter checkbox is required and working. However, the colors
checkboxes are all named as an array ( ex: name=color[] ), and so
the problem lies in the validation code, where it uses the name of the
element to require elements ( ex: newsletter: required ).
$(#testform).validate({
rules: {
// how do i name colors below?
// colors[] ???
// fieldset#color_preference input:checkbox ???
colors: {
required: true,
minlength: 1
},
newsletter: required
},
messages: {
colors: *Required,
newsletter: *Required
}
});
Here is an example:
