See code below… jquery validator seems to be rejecting any input entered in the name field. it asks to match the specified format. Is there a default format or something? I am stumped!!!

<script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function() {
        $("#signupform").validator();
    });
</script>


<body>

<form id="signupform">
    <fieldset>

    <p><input type="text" name="name" value="Name*" minlength="1" maxlength="40" pattern="[A-Za-z]" required /></p>
    <p><input type="email" name="email" value="Email*" required /></p>
    <button type="submit">Submit</button>
    <button type="reset">Reset</button>
    </fieldset>
</form>

</body>
</html>

    The pattern [A-Za-z] matches a single character, thus if you type more than one, you’ll get a validation error. Use [A-Za-z]+ instead, which means one or more characters in the range A-Z or a-z.

    Also, this pattern won’t match the initial value Name* due to the asterisk.
