I am sure I am missing something somewhere, but I can't see where. I am trying to use the jQuery validate script but get this error continually. I am pretty sure all the files are in the right place etc. This is in the head:

<script src="scripts/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="scripts/jquery.validate.min.js"></script> <script> $(document).ready(function() { $('#form1').validate(); }); // end ready </script>

then my form is as follows:

 <form action="contact.php" id="form1" name="form1" method="post"> <p> <label for="name">Your name: </label><br /> <input name="name" type="text" class="required" title="Please enter your name." id="name" maxlength="80" /> </p> <p> <label for="email">Your email address:</label><br /> <input name="email" type="text" class="required email" title="Please enter a valid email address." id="email" maxlength="100" /> </p> <p> <label for="phone">Your contact number:</label><br /> <input name="phone" type="text" class="required" title="Please enter your phone number" id="phone" maxlength="50" /> </p> <p> <label for="message">Message:<br /> </label> <textarea name="message" id="message" cols="50" rows="5"></textarea> </p> <p> <input name="Submit" type="submit" class="form" id="Submit" value="Submit" style="width:100px" /> </p> </form>

Thanks for any help!
