jQuery datepicker validation message issue
- by Abhishek
Hi,
I'm using the jquery datepicker plugin at http://plugins.jquery.com/project/datepick with the datepicker validation plugin.
<script id="frmValidation" type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
var validator = $("#frmTest").validate({
rules:{
fname: "required",
dobPicker: "required"
},
messages:{
fname: "Please enter a name",
dobPicker: "Select a date"
},
});
$('#dobPicker').datepick();
$.datepick.setDefaults({showOn: 'both', dateFormat: 'dd-mm-yy', yearRange:'1900:2010'});
});
</script>
And the body of the document is as follows :
<form id="frmTest" action="" method="post">
<div id="error-list"></div>
<div class="form-row">
<span class="label"><label for="fname">Name</label></span>
<input type="text" name="fname" />
</div>
<div class="form-row">
<span class="label"><label for="dobPicker">DOB</label></span>
<input type="text" id="dobPicker" name="dobPicker" style="margin-left: 4px;"/>
</div>
<div class="form-row">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit"/>
</div>
</form>
The form validates the first time but the error message for the datepicker does not disappear immediately a date is selected.. however it goes away if the date is selected the second time. Any help to make it go the first time a date is selected will be appreciated
