Menu
I am using jquery validation plugin to validate my forms. To validate a text input all I do is write class="required" in the attribute and it does the validation for me.
Now I am trying to validate an input where users will have to enter time( like 02:45:00 AM) but the plugin that I am using doesn't have any function for time validation. So, I have to build a custom validation for that but the problem is I have no knowledge of Jquery :(
Could you please show me how to do this?
Thanks in advance
For your information I need to build it for 12 hr time format

You could use jQuery Validators addMethod().
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.2/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jQuery.Validate/1.6/jQuery.Validate.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$().ready(function() {
$.validator.addMethod("time", function(value, element) {
return this.optional(element) || /^(([0-1]?[0-9])|([2][0-3])):([0-5]?[0-9])(:([0-5]?[0-9]))?$/i.test(value);
}, "Please enter a valid time.");
$("#login").validate({
rules: {
time: "required time",
},
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form id="login" name="login" method="post" action="#">
<h1>Time Validation</h1><br />
<label for="time">Enter Time</label>
<input id="time" name="time" type="text" value="" tabindex="1" /><br />
<input id="submit" name="submit" type="submit" value="Submit" tabindex="2" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
