Menu
I want the jQuery Validate plugin to only display the validation messages only upon form submit and not when the focus from a input field is lost. How do Ii achieve this?
Right now I am following this pattern, which leads to validation after lost focus event:
<html>
<head>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#commentForm").validate();
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form class="cmxform" id="commentForm" method="get" action="">
<fieldset>
<p>
<label for="cname">Name</label>
<em>*</em><input id="cname" name="name" size="25" class="required" minlength="2" />
</p>
</fieldset>
</form>
</body>
</html>

You need to disable all three handlers if you wish to receive absolutely no errors before submission and you can do validation like this:
$('#commentForm').validate({
onfocusout: false,
onkeyup: false,
onclick: false
})
You have to change the default option for onfocusout
$(".selector").validate({
onfocusout: false
})
More options to enable or disable are listed here - http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/Validation/validate#toptions
