It's not submitting because you never tell it to. I would first try replacing the call to validator.form() with $("#myform").submit(). I would assume that does the validation check first. In case doing that bypasses the validation, check the return value of validator.form() and submit if it's successful, a la: if (validator.form()) $("#myform").submit();. Nathan
