I'm working with the validation plugin and I'm trying to work out the id of
the first form field that causes an error. Hopefully someone will tell me
there's a really easy way to do this but I couldn't find it so, as a start,
I've added a new function in validate.js:
returnList: function() {
console.error( this.errorList );
},
I've added this just after the countErrors function. In my form page I've
added:
var errorFound = $('#theform').submit(function(){if (validator.countErrors()
> 0){ validator.returnList() }});
With the above I see in the console an object returned that says:
Object useremail=Please enter a valid email address
And, if I click on the above I get the full object:
recipientemail please enter a valid address
useremail please enter a valid address
What I'd like to be able to do in returnList is (pseudo code)...
returnList: function() {
return( this.errorList[id[0]] );
},
...to return 'recipientemail' (or 'useremail', I'm not fussed).
Can anyone tell me what I need to put in the [brackets] to retrieve what I
want? I've tried id, element, name, key, etc but I'm not getting anywhere so
perhaps I'm going about this the wrong way?
Thanks
