[jQuery] validate "confirm" method

[jQuery] validate "confirm" method


Hi
Using the validate plugin, I'd like to write a validation method
called "confirm" that does the following:
suppose my form has
    <input type="text" id="email" class="required email">
    <input type="text" id="email_confirm" class="required email confirm">
what I'd like is the confirm method to look at the current object's
id, strip off the "_confirm" and check that the value matches the
corresponding field. I'd like this to be reusable.
I've made several attempts at this but...
thanks
