Currently Form Warden does all these things.
- Decoupled form validation from the UI library
- Allows easy overriding of processErrors
- Regex support
- Work in all browsers >IE6, FF, Chrome, Safari
Add your script references
<script src="jquery-1.6.1.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="jquery.formwarden-pack.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
Place an additional script tag just inside of the close body tag.
<script>
$(function(){
var validationOptions=
{
fields:{
"email":[{isValid:"required", message:"Email is required"},
{isValid:"email", message:"Email must be valid"}],
"firstName":[{isValid: "required", message: "First Name is required"},
{isValid:function(value, form){ return value.length < 25; }, message:"First Name must be less than 25 characters"}],
}
};
$("form").validation(validationOptions);
});
</script>
For more advanced examples, such as defining your own validator or overriding the processErrors behavor check out validation_only.html and validation_and_visibility.html.
