I can do this
jQuery.fn.validate = function(options) {
var defaults = {
validateOPtions1 : '',
validateOPtions2 : ''
};
var settings = $.extend({}, defaults, options);
return this.each(function() {
// you validation code goes here
});
};
but that will make validate() available for every element. I could do this to any element: $('some selector').validate().
Is there a way I can make this only available to, say, form elements? eg. $('.mySpecialFormClass').validate()?
