Can someone please help me with this code? I am using bootstrap for the form and trying to validate it with jQuery. Unfortunately, the form validation isn't telling me what I'm doing wrong. I got the script from http://jqueryvalidation.org/documentation/ and followed a tutorial for client-sided validation.

<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#contact-form').validate(
{
rules: {
name: {
minlength: 2,
required: true
},
email: {
required: true,
email: true
},
message: {
minlength: 2,
required: true
}
},
highlight: function(element) {
$(element).closest('.control-group').removeClass('success').addClass('error');
},
success: function(element) {
element
.text('OK!').addClass('valid')
.closest('.control-group').removeClass('error').addClass('success');
}
});
}); // end document.ready
</script>

I had your code setup on jsFiddle to try diagnose the problem.

However, I don't seem to encounter your issue. Could you take a look and let us know?
HTML
<div class="hero-unit">
<h1>Contact Form</h1>
</br>
<form method="POST" action="contact-form-submission.php" class="form-horizontal" id="contact-form">

<label class="control-label" for="name">Name</label>
<div class="controls">
<input type="text" name="name" id="name" placeholder="Your name">

<div class="control-group">
<label class="control-label" for="email">Email Address</label>

</form>
Javascript
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#contact-form').validate({
rules: {
name: {
minlength: 2,
required: true
},
email: {
required: true,
email: true
},
message: {
minlength: 2,
required: true
}
},
highlight: function (element) {
$(element).closest('.control-group').removeClass('success').addClass('error');
},
success: function (element) {
element.text('OK!').addClass('valid')
.closest('.control-group').removeClass('error').addClass('success');
}
});
});
You can get another validation on this tutorial : http://twitterbootstrap.org/bootstrap-form-validation
They use JQuery validation.
jquery.validate.js
jquery.validate.min.js
jquery-1.7.1.min.js
And you'll get the source code there.
<form id="registration-form" class="form-horizontal">
<h2>Sample Registration form <small>(Fill up the forms to get register)</small></h2>
<div class="form-control-group">
<label class="control-label" for="name">Your Name</label>
<div class="controls">
<input type="text" class="input-xlarge" name="name" id="name"></div>
</div>
<div class="form-control-group">
<label class="control-label" for="name">User Name</label>
<div class="controls">
<input type="text" class="input-xlarge" name="username" id="username"></div>
</div>
<div class="form-control-group">
<label class="control-label" for="name">Password</label>
<div class="controls">
<input type="password" class="input-xlarge" name="password" id="password">
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-control-group">
<label class="control-label" for="name"> Retype Password</label>
<div class="controls">
<input type="password" class="input-xlarge" name="confirm_password" id="confirm_password"></div>
</div>
<div class="form-control-group">
<label class="control-label" for="email">Email Address</label>
<div class="controls">
<input type="text" class="input-xlarge" name="email" id="email"></div>
</div>
<div class="form-control-group">
<label class="control-label" for="message">Your Address</label>
<div class="controls">
<textarea class="input-xlarge" name="address" id="address" rows="3"></textarea></div>
</div>
<div class="form-control-group">
<label class="control-label" for="message"> Please agree to our policy</label>
<div class="controls">
<input id="agree" class="checkbox" type="checkbox" name="agree"></div>
</div>
<div class="form-actions">
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-success btn-large">Register</button>
<button type="reset" class="btn">Cancel</button></div>
</form>
And The JQuery :
<script src="assets/js/jquery-1.7.1.min.js"></script>
<script src="assets/js/jquery.validate.js"></script>
<script src="script.js"></script>
<script>
addEventListener('load', prettyPrint, false);
$(document).ready(function(){
$('pre').addClass('prettyprint linenums');
});
