I have a complex web application that I'm struggling with.  Here's one of my problems..

I have a main DIV and the content is loaded, depending on what the user selects.  If the user selects the div that contains a form which I am validating using $("#myform").validator(); and it shows "please complete this mandatory field" against all appropriate fields.  It works fine, but here's the problem, if the user decides to cancel and do something else, like click another menu option and load the main div with different content, the yellow error messages stay on the screen.

I'd really appreciate some help if anyone can advise?
