Jquery Validate - require_from_group <p>I'm using <strong>require_from_group</strong> from Jquery Validate Framework and I'm trying to display the error message in every single field that belongs to the group, but it is only being displayed in two of them.</p> <p>HTML code: </p> <pre><code>&lt;form id="myform"&gt; &lt;label for="mobile_phone"&gt;Mobile phone: &lt;/label&gt; &lt;input class="phoneUS contactMethod" id="mobile_phone" name="mobile_phone"&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;label for="home_phone"&gt;Home phone: &lt;/label&gt; &lt;input class="phoneUS contactMethod" id="home_phone" name="home_phone"&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;label for="work_phone"&gt;Work phone: &lt;/label&gt; &lt;input class="phoneUS contactMethod" id="Work_phone" name="work_phone"&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;label for="work_phone"&gt;Fax phone: &lt;/label&gt; &lt;input class="phoneUS contactMethod" id="fax_phone" name="fax_phone"&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;label for="work_phone"&gt;Email: &lt;/label&gt; &lt;input class="phoneUS contactMethod" id="email" name="email"&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;input type="submit" value="Go!"&gt; &lt;/form&gt; </code></pre> <p>JS:</p> <pre><code>$.validator.addClassRules("contactMethod", { require_from_group: [1, ".contactMethod"] }); $( "#myform" ).validate(); </code></pre> <p>This is my JSFiddle: <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/3jahT/" rel="nofollow">http://jsfiddle.net/3jahT/</a></p> <p>I want that, whenever user clicks on submit, message appears across all fields, as well as when user unfocus one of them without filling it. (Jquery default functionality).</p>
