Question

Weird, real weird.

I have some Jquery Validation statements that still allow a post back despite the conditions of that Validation not being met. Here are my statements…

$("#temp1").validate({
        rules: {
            HospitalFinNumber: {
                required: true,
                minlength: 6
            },
            DateOfBirth: {
                required: true
            },
            AdmitDate: {
                required: true
            },
            Comment: {
                required: function (element) {
                    return $(element).val().length < 4000;
                }
            }
        },
        messages: {
            HospitalFinNumber: 'Please Enter a Hospital Fin number',
            DateOfBirth: 'Please enter a valid Date Of Birth',
            AdmitDate: 'Please select an Admit Date',
            Comment: 'Why dont you stop attempting to put in more than 4000 characters?  Thanks...'
    });
});

I could have sworn that they were working before
