jquery.validate flagging invalid when not
jQuery JavaScript Library v1.3.2
jQuery validation plug-in 1.5.5
I'm working on a form with a bunch of fields with MaxLength
validators.
When a field with contents are erased the jquery.validate element
function kicks in, sees one validator (for max length), which, when
evaluated returns "dependency-mismatch", that results in an undefined
result, that then causes the field to be flagged as invalid, but with
no explanation as to why it is invalid.
This code in "element: function(element)" seems to be the problem:
var result = this.check(element);
if (result) {
delete this.invalid[element.name];
} else {
this.invalid[element.name] = true;
Because, if result isn't true the element gets added to the list of
invalid elements.
I have a local work around which seems reasonable to me:
var result = this.check(element);
if (result !== undefined) {
if (result) {
delete this.invalid[element.name];
} else {
this.invalid[element.name] = true;
}
}
Am I missing something?
Is this a valid change?
Thanks,
