So I want to validate my form using jQuery, this is how I imagine it and it works, but is the best method of doing it and maybe I can do it more effective with less code?

<script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function()
    {
        $("#frmCatAdd").submit(function()
        {
            var name = $("#edtName").val();

            if (name == "")
                $("#edtName").css("border", "1px solid red")
            else
                $("#frmCatAdd").submit();

            return false;
        });
    });
</script>
