I believe that would be possible with either the required(dependency-expression) or required(dependency-callback) options
It looks really similar to the sample they use for dependency-expression http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/Validation/Methods/required#dependency-expres sion Though if you're going to get more complicated you may want to use dependency-callback http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/Validation/Methods/required#dependency-callba ck Hope this helps, Christine -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Josh Gillies Sent: Sunday, November 09, 2008 7:38 PM To: jQuery (English) Subject: [jQuery] [validate] Dynamic required fields Hey all, I am wondering whether it's possible to set up a form with dynamic required fields? Basically what I am after is a feedback form with a question like How would you rate this site? with possible answers as Great Okay Needs Work to finish this up there will be a comment box which will default to not required assuming the user will tick Great or Okay. But if they say it needs work then I'd like to have the comments area switch to required so to get them to leave comments as to why they think the site needs work. I hope you understand me request. Thanks in advance :)
