Thanks for the tips, Josh...

I've been trying to figure out how to incorporate
your code suggestions into the mix, but nothing I've
tried seems to affect the function.

Any clue as to how it should be incorporated?

Also... to Jorn... Jorn, do you know how I can
disable a submit button while errors are present in a
form using your validation plug-in, then have the
submit button re-enabled once the form entries
are error-free?

Rick,

If the button is disabled, how are they going to resubmit the form after 
they enter the correct information?  You would need to disable the button, 
then re-enable it on keyup so they can re-submit once they've filled the 
info in correctly.

To disable, somewhere in your error placement function, do something like:

$("#buttonID").css({disabled:true});
Where "buttonID" is your Calculate button id.

Then you'll want to bind a keyup event in your fields:
$("#buttonID").css({disabled:false});
So the button will be re-enabled when they enter more info.

Now I didn't test any of that, nor have I used the validation script, but it

should get you going in the right direction.
