ok, after testing this myself i found a few issues... here is the
revised changes/line numbers
209: errorElement: "label",
ADDED 210: errorElementClass: "",
211: focusInvalid: true,
450: errors: function() {
ADDED 451: var errorElementClassToUse =
this.settings.errorElementClass.length > 1 ?
this.settings.errorElementClass : this.settings.errorClass;
CHANGED 452: return $( this.settings.errorElement + "." +
errorElementClassToUse , this.errorContext );
453: },
616: // refresh error/success class
CHANGED 617: label.removeClass().addClass
( this.settings.errorElementClass.length>1?
this.settings.errorElementClass : this.settings.errorClass );
618:
619:// check if we have a generated label, replace the message then
620: label.attr("generated") && label.html(message);
621:} else {
622:// create label
623:label = $("<" + this.settings.errorElement + "/>")
624:.attr({"for": this.idOrName(element), generated: true})
CHANGED 625:.addClass(this.settings.errorElementClass.length>1?
this.settings.errorElementClass : this.settings.errorClass)
626:.html(message || "");
627:if ( this.settings.wrapper ) {
i have posted the revised jquery.validate.js here:
http://pastebay.com/41589
here is an example usage:
$("#myform").validate({
errorElementClass:"someClass",
errorClass: "anotherClass"
})
