Is it possible to only run validation when the form is submitted? I am using version 1.1 of the validation plugin (http://bassistance.de/ jquery-plugins/jquery-plugin-validation/)
I want to do something only when the form is submitted, so tried this basic code: $("form").validate( { showErrors: function(errors) { alert("should only fire on submit"); } }) The alert shows when I try to submit the form, and also when I click the page after dismissing the alert.
