[jQuery] Problem with jquery.validate.js


Hi all,
I'm working with the JQuery validate plugin and having a few problems.
I must first point out that I am a novice and may be asking dumb
questions! Any tips or links would be great.
I have a test page here I am working on:
http://paulcollinslondon.com/contactTest.php
I am using another script to replace the normal submit button with an
image (/javascript/scripts.js). The problem with this is when I use
this script it doesn't interact with the JQuery validation and it uses
the standard PHP. When I remove the ID (id="sendButton_replace") to
call the button script, the validation works fine.
If anyone has a moment, would they be able to take a look?! You don't
have to give me the answer even, just point me in the right direction.
I'm stuck!
Thanks for any help.
Paul
