[jQuery] [validate]

[jQuery] [validate]


Hello All!
First off, the jQuery Validator plugin is great! All the functionality
you could want in a form validation module. But, I have a small
problem with select boxes and the 'required' attributes.
I have this <select> form:
<label for='eventvenue'>City:</label><select name="eventvenue"
id="eventvenue"
onchange="document.getElementById('menus').style.display='inline';"
title='Please select a city.'>
<option value=""></option>
<option value="1">Portsmouth</option></select>
And this is t he accompanying validation code:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#eventForm").validate({
        rules: {
        uploadedfile: {
            required: true
        },
        eventvenue: {
             required: true
        }
        }
    });
});
However, when I select the 'empty' option, no error message is
displayed.
Any help would be appriciated, thank you.
