Question

I’m wondering if with the jquery validation plugin you can make 1 of 2 fields required.

I’ve looked through the docs but can’t find anything to tell me.

Answer 1

If either one is needed if(f1 || f2) works.

http://jsfiddle.net/efortis/VXuCr/

function validator () {
    var inputs = $('input');
    var f1 = inputs.eq(0).val();
    var f2 = inputs.eq(1).val();

    if( f1 || f2 ){        
      $("#message").html("OK");    
    }    
    else{
      $("#message").html("*fill at least one field");            
    }  
}
