Thanks guys. I really appreciate all the help. I'm still stuck, though. I can't get anything to work now, although I can't seem to figure out why. I'm definitely not a programmer, so please be gentle, though feel free to explain things to me like I'm a 5 year-old. I won't be offended. :-)

Matt, How I said, you should try: jQuery.validator.addMethod(correctAnswer, function(value, element, params) { return this.optional(element) || value == params; }, Select the correct answer to move on.); So you can make: $(quiz_form).validate({ rules: { correctAnswer: 1 } }); Just these 3

Heya Matt Looks like you have created the custom method for the validation, but you are not calling it anywhere. You are still setting the validation method to be the default required. You need to add the method as a class to the element (as you did originally) or specify it as a rule in the

Alexandre, this sounds like it would do pretty much what I need. I followed your post but I can't seem to get it working. Can you look at the code below and tell me where I've gone wrong? Sorry to ask for all the help but I think I'm kind of close and I just want to get it done! :-) script

well like many things this has a variable answer... but what I think you will need to do is write a script that gets the correct answer (I would use ajax calls to server so the answer can not be seen in the browser code) then set an event on the submit button that cycles through your radio

Thanks for your reply. I'm going to give it a go with what you suggested, although I'm not exactly a seasoned pro at this so I will probably get stuck and come back begging for more help. :-) I should have mentioned that this thing needs to run locally from a user's hard disk without a

Yeah, like I thought, I'm back again. ;-) Below is the code I've been cobbling together from your previous post. Please feel free to slap me around and tell me where I've done bad. Right now, the form validation works fine (if there is nothing selected then the jquery validation comes up).
