I'm having issues getting the validation plugin (http://bassistance.de/ jquery-plugins/jquery-plugin-validation/) to work with dot net. Whatever i try i can't stop the form from submitting. I've tried several things i've found on this group and the web. Can anyone help me getting this to work?
Here's my html. <span id="ctl00_Control_LeftColumn_CF_Contact" class="ContactForm"> <p class="SuccessMessage">Submitted</p> <span class="Field"> <span class="Label">Name </span> <span class="Validation"> <span id="ctl00_Control_LeftColumn_CF_Contact_ctl01_ctl04" style="display: none;"/> </span> <input id="ctl00_Control_LeftColumn_CF_Contact_ctl01_TB_TextBox" class="TextBox Name" type="text" name="ctl00$Control_LeftColumn $CF_Contact$ctl01$TB_TextBox"/> </span> <span class="Field"> </span> <span class="Field"> </span> <a id="ctl00_Control_LeftColumn_CF_Contact_LB_Submit" class="Submit" href="javascript:__doPostBack('ctl00$Control_LeftColumn$CF_Contact $LB_Submit','')" style="background-color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">Submit</a> </span> And here is my javascript: $(document).ready(function(){ $("#aspnetForm").validate({ rules: { ctl00$Control_LeftColumn$CF_Contact$ctl01$TB_TextBox: "required", ctl00$Control_LeftColumn$CF_Contact$ctl02$TB_TextBox: { required: true, email: true }, ctl00$Control_LeftColumn$CF_Contact$ctl04$TB_TextBox: "required" } }); }); As i say above, the form just submits regardless so i'm lost on a solution!
