jQuery Validate Ignore elements with style

by

Note: As of version 1.9.0, ignore: ":hidden" is the default option, so it does not have to be set explicitly anymore.

Use :hidden:

Elements can be considered hidden for several reasons:

  • They have a display value of none.
  • They are form elements with type=”hidden”.
  • Their width and height are explicitly set to 0.
  • An ancestor element is hidden, so the element is not shown on the page.
$("#myform").validate({
   ignore: ":hidden"
});

Update: for completeness, from the plugin’s documentation:

ignore
Elements to ignore when validating, simply filtering them out. jQuery’s not-method is used, therefore everything that is accepted by not() can be passed as this option. Inputs of type submit and reset are always ignored, so are disabled elements.
