jQuery.validate file upload

jQuery.validate file upload

Hello, I`m using the jQuery.validate plugin from http://bassistance.de/ . I would like to add custom <input type="file" /> validation to my script.

  1. <script type="text/javascript">
        $(document).ready(function () {
            $("#name,#file").addClass("required");
            $("#preventspam").addClass("required digits");
            $("#email").addClass("required email");
            $("#telefon").addClass("digits");
            $("#contact").validate({
                errorLabelContainer: $("#contact div.error")
            });
            return false;
        });
    </script>











And this custom method or any other method in fact that restricts file type beside docx,doc and pdf:

  1. jQuery.validator.addMethod("accept", function(value, element, param) {
    return value.match(new RegExp("." + param + "$"));
    });

    rules: {
    fileupload: { accept: "(docx?|doc|pdf)" }
    }





Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
