I want to use jQUery.validate in a MVC4 project. I have a wizard setup

  • 0

I want to use jQUery.validate in a MVC4 project. I have a wizard setup (from stepy) where I have 6 steps to go through. On each step I want to add validation. Now the validation works until appearantly I use a checkbox.
On step 2 I have a checkbox. When I then want to continue to step 3 it gives me the error:
Cannot read property name of undefined.

When I remove the checkbox all works fine. Also when I run the HTML it works but if I put it into MVC razor it fails.

Any help is appreciated.

thanks

This is the HTML + jQuery:

    The code in the question is missing a closing div tag.

    Other than that it there is no problem with it. The question is an example from stepy on github which does seem to work with check boxes. I would try to get the examples working correctly and check that you are referencing all the js files.
