jquery-validation v1.2.1 Release Notes
-
- 🔌 Bundled delegate plugin with validate plugin - its always required anyway
- 👌 Improved remote validation to include parts from the ajaxQueue plugin for proper synchronization (no additional plugin necessary)
- 🛠 Fixed stopRequest to prevent pendingRequest < 0
- ➕ Added jQuery.validator.autoCreateRanges property, defaults to false, enable to convert min/max to range and minlength/maxlength to rangelength; this basically fixes the issue introduced by automatically creating ranges in 1.2
- 🛠 Fixed optional-methods to not highlight anything at all if the field is blank, that is, don't trigger success
- 👍 Allow false/null for highlight/unhighlight options instead of forcing a do-nothing-callback even when nothing needs to be highlighted
- 🛠 Fixed validate() call with no elements selected, returning undefined instead of throwing an error
- 👌 Improved demo, replacing metadata with classes/attributes for specifying rules
- 🛠 Fixed error when no custom message is used for remote validation
- Modified email and url validation to require domain label and top label
- 🛠 Fixed url and email validation to require TLD (actually to require domain label); 1.2 version (TLD is optional) is moved to additions as url2 and email2
- 🛠 Fixed dynamic-totals demo in IE6/7 and improved templating, using textarea to store multiline template and string interpolation
- ➕ Added login form example with "Email password" link that makes the password field optional
- ✨ Enhanced dynamic-totals demo with an example of a single message for two fields
1.2
- ➕ Added AJAX-captcha validation example (based on http://psyrens.com/captcha/)
- ➕ Added remember-the-milk-demo (thanks RTM team for the permission!)
- ➕ Added marketo-demo (thanks Glen Lipka!)
- ➕ Added support for ajax-validation, see method "remote"; serverside returns JSON, true for valid elements, false or a String for invalid, String is used as message
- ➕ Added highlight and unhighlight options, by default toggles errorClass on element, allows custom highlighting
- ➕ Added valid() plugin method for easy programmatic checking of forms and fields without the need to use the validator API
- ➕ Added rules() plugin method to read and write rules for an element (currently read only)
- ➕ Replaced regex for email method, thanks to the contribution by Scott Gonzalez, see http://projects.scottsplayground.com/email_address_validation/
- 🐎 Restructured event architecture to rely solely on delegation, both improving performance, and ease-of-use for the developer (requires jquery.delegate.js)
- 📚 Moved documentation from inline to http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/Validation - including interactive examples for all methods
- ✂ Removed validator.refresh(), validation is now completely dynamic
- 🚚 Renamed minValue to min, maxValue to max and rangeValue to range, deprecating the previous names (to be removed in 1.3)
- 🚚 Renamed minLength to minlength, maxLength to maxlength and rangeLength to rangelength, deprecating the previous names (to be removed in 1.3)
- ➕ Added feature to merge min + max into and range and minlength + maxlength into rangelength
- ➕ Added support for dynamic rule parameters, allowing to specify a function as a parameter eg. for minlength, called when validating the element
- 👍 Allow to specify null or an empty string as a message to display nothing (see marketo demo)
- 📇 Rules overhaul: Now supports combination of rules-option, metadata, classes (new) and attributes (new), see rules() for details
