I have a form with two input textboxes, and I have included JQuery validation rules for both:
<script src="../../Scripts/jquery-validate/jquery.validate.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function() { $('#respondForm').validate({ onclick: false, onkeyup: false, onfocusout: false, highlight: function(element, errorClass) { $(element).css({ backgroundColor: 'Red' }); } , errorLabelContainer: $("ul", $('div.error-container')), wrapper: 'li', rules: { 'text': { required: true , minlength: 5 , maxlength: 10 }, integer: { required: true, range: [0, 90] } } , messages: { 'text': { required: "xxx_Required" , minlength: "XXX Should be greater than 5" , maxlength: "XXX Cannot be greater than 10" }, integer: { required: "is required", range: "is out of range: [0,90]" } } }); }); </script> </head> . . . <input type="text" id="text" name="text" /> <br /> <input type="text" id="integer" name="integer" /> <br /> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" /> <br /> I have used: function(element, errorClass) { $(element).css({ backgroundColor: 'Red' }); } to highlight the error control. Now the problem is that in the following scenario, both the input textboxes remain highlighted (background color: red): 1. Input text with less than 5 characters in text box 1 2. Leave text box 2 blank 3. Hit submit 4. Both input text box background will be changed to red (which is correct) 5. Now enter a text which has 6 characters in text box 1(valid input) 6. Leave text box 2 empty 7. Hit submit 8. The background color for both the textboxes remains red. Where as the expectation is that the background color of text box 1 should not be red How do i resolve this problem? -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/JQuery-validation-plugin---error-highlight-problem-tp26282040s27240p26282040.html Sent from the jQuery General Discussion mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
