Question

So, I basically want to do something like this: http://jsfiddle.net/bUV6S/1/ …

But I want to do it using the validate.js. Is it possible to target multiple textboxes using:

            errorPlacement: function (error, element) {
                error.appendTo($("#textUsername"));
            }

…in some way? Thanks.

You can append to multiple elements like this:

error.appendTo("#textUsername, #textPassword");

Here is the documentation link for “Multiple Selectors”: http://api.jquery.com/multiple-selector/
