Dont submit the form after jquery validation

I have a form which have the jquery validation. My problem is, I just want to validate the form and I dont want to submit. How to do that?

Any suggestion开发者_运维问答s?

Thanks in advance.

If you want it to happen in the submit button, do:

$("#your_form").submit(function(event){
   event.preventDefault();
});

But if you want to validate by scripting anytime, do:

  //Validates but doesn't submit. Validates and returns true or false indicating if it was valid.
  $("#form").data('validator').form();  

Hope this helps. Cheers

Try to bind "valid()" function to an event wich does't send the form.

$('#yourbutton').click(function(){
  $("#yourform").valid();
});

$(document).ready(function(e){

    $('#submit').submit(function(e){

       //validate form 

       e.preventDefault(); // or return false ;
    });

});

If you are using the jQuery Validation plugin, pass onsubmit: false to the validate method:

$('#someForm').validate({
    onsubmit: false
});
