jQuery Validate rule removal making me cry - jquery-validate

I am successfully validating and arresting the submission of a form using Validate by the bassistance.de guy.
Problem is, I am halting submission too much as there is a hidden set of inputs which requires validation only if ONE other radio button is checked.
I am calling my validation scheme from a remote script on page load and I was "TRYING" to remove the validation rule on the form page when the contingent element is clicked.
Thing is, the page acts as though the rule is still there.
Here's some pseudo:
<html>
<head>
<script src="jquery.js"></script>
<script src="jq.validate.js"></script>
<script src="formproc.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<form method="" action="" id="whatever">
<input type="radio" name="answer" value="1008" id="yes" /><label for="yes">Yes</yes>
<input type="radio" name="answer" value="1009" id="no" /><label for="no">No</label>
<input type="radio" name="answer" value="1010" id="un" /><label for="un">Not sure</label>
<div id="somedivthatshidden">
<input type="radio" name="nother" value="1009" id="ok" /><label for="ok">OK</label>
<input type="radio" name="nother" value="1010" id="noway" /><label for="noway">No Way</label>
</div>
<script src="jQ_funx_that_handle_the_show_hide_etc.js"></script>
<input type="submit" value="doit" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
So, when the user clicks on any of the FIRST 3 radio buttons that DO NOT reveal "SOMEDIVETHATSHIDDEN", I also call for the rule removal. Is this wrong?
I've tried putting the rule removal inline in the document, at the end of my function listing, so on and so forth... no dice. Still hangs on that required second set of radios even if they're not displayed
Thanks much,
Rob

You can use depends config option to make a field conditionally required.

How to enable or disable a field in grocery

I'm developing a form and need to enable or disable a field depending on the answer given.
Attached screen. When choosing whether to enable the field below, NO disables it.
Thanks for the reply.
You can try this (using jquery hide and show):
You have to include jquery first in you file to make it work;
HTML:
<script src="jquery-2.1.4.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<input type="radio" class="radiobutton" name="select" value="yes" /> yes
<input type="radio" class="radiobutton" name="select" value="no" />no
<input type="text" name="name" id="name" value="" />
Working example https://jsfiddle.net/prohit0/zfjsmn59/22/
SCRIPT:
<script>
$(document).ready(function(e) {
$('input[type="radio"]').click(function(){
if($(this).attr("value")=="yes"){
//id is the id of the elemnt to hide
$('input[id="name"]').show();
}else {
$('input[id="name"]').hide();
}
});
});
</script>

Form Mobile Validation - after other functions have run

I need some help with the following issue. I am pretty new to JavaScript so this one is pretty tough for me. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
We have a form for registration that is already in use and I need to make some amends to it to enhance its usability. The form itself already contains several validation scripts and I need to add in a new one - an error message to appear next to the mobile field. I am unable to amend the form HTML itself so I have to do everything by javascript – I need to bind the new function to the submit button so that it fires AFTER all the other validations (field highlight, pop ups), but before the page turns over.
Here is the form (I have just left in the feild i need to amend) :
<form method="post" action="#" id="register_form" class="validate">
<input type="hidden" name="page" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="unregistered" value="false" />
<fieldset>
<legend>I am a new online customer</legend>
<div class="element">
<label for="mobile_number">Mobile:**</label>
<input name="mobileNumber" type="text" id="mobile_number" title="Please enter at least one number" class="text validate {validate:{minLength:10, eitherOr:'#telephone_number', messages:{minLength:'Please enter a valid phone number (at least #NUM digits long)', eitherOr:'Please enter either your Telephone or Mobile number'}}}" />
</div>
<div class="element continue_shopping_cont submit">
<button type="submit" class="submit button small_button"><span>Register</span></button>
</div>
<input type="hidden" name="secure_from" value="" />
</fieldset>
</form>
Could someone help show me how i am supposed to do this and how is best to target this field?

Magento - newsletter pop code using ajax update in form

I have the below code that is being used in cms page pop up
the problem im having is if you leave email address input field blank and hit the submit (in the case "Get Code" button, you briefly see the red validation message but then hides the form, shows the hidden div.
why or how can I prevent this process, i want it to validate but proceed to show the hidden div content. Below is the code.
<div id="pop-confirm" style="display: none;">
<h1 style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">THANKS!</h1>
<p> </p>
<h2>Use code: <strong>extra15</strong><br /> for 15% off your purchase.</h2>
</div>
<form id="newsletter-validate-detail" action="home/send" method="post" onSubmit="new Ajax.Updater({success:'newsletter-validate-detail'}, 'newsletter/subscriber/new', {asynchronous:true, evalScripts:false, onComplete:function(request, json){Element.hide('newsletter-validate-detail');Element.show('pop-confirm');}, onLoading:function(request, json){}, parameters:Form.serialize(this)}); return false;">
<div class="block-content">
<h2>ENTER YOUR EMAIL<br /> AND GET</h2>
<div class="form-subscribe-header">
<h1>15% OFF</h1>
<br />
<h1>EVERYTHING!</h1>
</div>
<div class="input-box"><input id="newsletter" class="input-text required-entry validate-email" title="Sign up for our newsletter" type="text" name="email" /></div>
<br />
<div class="actions"><button class="button" title="Get Code" type="submit"><span><span>Get Code</span></span></button></div>
<br />
<p><em>* Promotion ends April 6th</em></p>
</div>
</form>
<script type="text/javascript">// <![CDATA[
var newsletterSubscriberFormDetail = new VarienForm('newsletter-validate-detail');
// ]]></script>
Im very new to ajax so maybe ive done something wrong.
any ideas or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Try changing your onSubmit to the following:
onSubmit="if(newsletterSubscriberFormDetail.validator.validate()){ new Ajax.Updater({success:'newsletter-validate-detail'}, 'newsletter/subscriber/new', {asynchronous:true, evalScripts:false, onComplete:function(request, json){Element.hide('newsletter-validate-detail');Element.show('pop-confirm');}, onLoading:function(request, json){}, parameters:Form.serialize(this)}); } return false;"`
This wil trigger the validator before submitting the form with AJAX. Works perfect for me :)

Kendo Grid custom pop up editor & validation

I have this simple kendo-template script:
<!-- popup editor template -->
<script id="userEditor" type="text/x-kendo-template">
<div id="popServerErrorSummaryPlaceholder" style="display:none"></div>
<div class="control-row">
<label class="span2" for="FirstName">Vorname</label>
<input Id="FirstName" class="span4" data-bind="value:FirstName" maxlength="50" name="FirstName" required="true" type="text" />
<span class="k-invalid-msg" data-for="FirstName"></span>
</div>
<div class="control-row">
<label class="span2" for="LastName">Nachname</label>
<input Id="LastName" class="span4" data-bind="value:LastName" maxlength="50" name="LastName" required="true" type="text" />
<span class="k-invalid-msg" data-for="LastName"></span>
</div>
</script>
Which is used while editing a single row within the Kend-UI grid.
I have got right now two issues:
a) The documentation states that I can control the position for validation messages via a "span" element that has a class "k-invalid-msg".
The behaviour right now is that this span Element gets replaced with a div element and it is positioned below the label element. I would like to get the message next to the input.
b) The validation is triggered immediately when the pop up is displayed.The validation should be trigger either when leaving the input or clicking the "update" button.
Someone out there who can help me here?
Things I am not quite sure how to handle:
c) Some validations are performed at the server. I get them back to the browser via the DataSource error event (custom JSON which is basically a list of field name and associated error messages). I would like to display the error messages within the validation span. I can create custom validation rules as documented here.
How do I get the validator that is associated with the pop up editor window? Or is there foreach input a validator created?
Anyone did this before?
Thanks for any help!

Form Submit using a Javascript to invoke webflow transition, doesn't take the updated value on form

I am trying to invoke a form submit using javascript (jquery) to invoke a webflow transition. It works and the submit invokes the desired transition. But, the updated radio button values is not reflected on the model object which is posted.
Here is the code:
<form:form method="post" action="#" commandName="infoModel" name="pageForm">
<form:input type="input" path="testMsg" id="success" />
<input type="button" id="clearSelections" value="Clear Selections">
<div class="question">
<h4><c:out value="${infoModel.questionInfo.description}"/> </h4>
<form:radiobuttons path="infoModel.answerId"
itemValue="answerId" itemLabel="answerDescription" items="${infoModel.answers}" delimiter="<br/>" />
</div>
<input type="submit" name="_eventId_saveQualitativeInput" value="Save" id="save" />
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#tabs').tabs();
//Clear selections (copy is server-side)
$('#clearSelections').click(function() {
//$('input[type="radio"]').prop('checked', false);
$('input[type="radio"]').removeAttr('checked');
$('#save').trigger('click');
});
});
</form:form>
The form:radiobutton, generates the below html:
<div class="question">
<h4>Is this a general obligation of the entity representing a full faith and credit pledge? </h4>
<span>
<input type="radio" checked="checked" value="273" name="infoModel.answerId" id="infoModel.answerId1">
<label for="infoModel.answerId1">Yes</label>
</span>
<span><br>
<input type="radio" value="274" name="infoModel.answerId" id="infoModel.answerId2">
<label for="infoModel.answerId2">No</label>
</span>
<br>
<span class="error"></span>
</div>
The input id= "success" value is registered and when the control goes to the server, the value of input id= "success" is updated in the "infoModel" object. But the value of answerId is not updated on the "infoModel" object.
Thoughts if i am missing something in the form:radiobutton element or if there is something else wrong?
Thanks in advance!
EDIT:::::::
Thanks mico! that makes sense. I stripped of some of the code first time to make it precise, but i have a list which is being used for building the radio-buttons, below is the code:
<c:forEach items="${infoModel.list["index"]}" var="qa" varStatus="rowCount">
<div class="question">
<h4><c:out value="${question.questionInfo.description}"/> </h4>
<form:radiobuttons path="list["index"][${rowCount.index}].answerId" itemValue="answerId" itemLabel="answerDescription" items="${question.answers}" delimiter="<br/>" />
<br>
</div>
</c:forEach>
Could you please suggest how i could try this one out?
NOTE: The same code works on a regular form submit on click of a button of type submit. Its the javascript form submit which is not working. I also tried to do whatever i want to do in javascript and then invoke the button.trigger('click'); form got submitted but the changes made on form in my javascript didnt reflect.
With commandName inside a form:form tag you set "Name of the model attribute under which the form object is exposed" (see Spring Documentation). Then in path you should tell the continuation of the path inside the model attribute.
With this said I would only drop the extra word infoModel from path="infoModel.answerId" and have it rewritten as path="answerId" there under the form:radiobutton.
