I'm using the jQuery Validation plug-in.
I have overwritten the required rule since mine depends on some custom condition as in following:
$.validator.addMethod("required", function(value, element) {
console.log("required", element);
return someCondition && value != null;
}, "This is is required.");
When the form is validated however, I see that "required"
is printed twice for each element meaning the function is called twice. As soon as I change the method name to "myRequired"
and add the following class rule, the function is called just once as it should be.
$.validator.addClassRules({
required : {
myRequired: true
}
});
It appears that the core required method is still intact and called even if I add a method with the same name. Is there anyway to entirely overwrite the core rule method?
You're not overriding it, but adding another method to it. To override it, try this:
$.validator.methods.required = function(value, element, param) {
console.log("required", element);
return someCondition && value != null;
}
You can use $.extend
to do this:
$.extend($.validator, {
required: function(value, element) {
console.log("required", element);
return someCondition && value != null;
}
})
