* Are the javascripts embedded into the Castle DLLs, or are they meant to be provided by me in my content/js directory (and if the latter, what is the convention for directory layout?)?
Not for jQuery AFAIK * How do I provoke MonoRail into spitting out a jQuery script include inside of the head of the rendered page? There is some InstallScripts methods in Form and Ajax helpers, but seems legacy code that work with prototype only. Better do that explicitely * My first objective is to get up and running with jQuery-provided client-side validation here is the steps I've followed to make this work with jQuery: - implement IMonoRailConfigurationEvents and register jquery validation helper see below - Setup your validation attributes on your "dto" - Put an empty dto in your property bag - build the form with the helper: * FormTag (you may pass jquery validate options: http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/Validation/validate#options) * Push("propertybag_dto_instance_itemname") * build the form with the helper * Pop * EndFormTag the client side validation will be generated on the FormHelper.EndForm Validator configuration configuration .JSGeneratorConfiguration .AddLibrary("jquery", typeof(JQueryValidator.JQueryValidationGenerator)) .BrowserValidatorIs(typeof(JQueryValidator)) .SetAsDefault(); Tell us if it works for you.
