I want to place the validation error in specific location, by default I am using
errorPlacement: function(error, element){
error.insertAfter(element);
}
This display the error message just after the form control element. But I want to display the error in specific location for each form control element.
My HTML page is look like this:
<form method='post' action='regaction.php' id='regform'>
<label for='username'>Username<span class='required'>*</span> </label>
<input type='text' id='username' name='username'><br><span class='err_label'></span><br>
<label for='password'>Password<span class='required'>*</span> </label>
<input type='password' id='password' name='password'><br><span class='err_label'></span><br>
<label for='password'>Confirm Password<span class='required'>*</span> </label>
<input type='password' id='cpassword' name='cpassword'><br><span class='err_label'></span><br>
<label for='email'>Email<span class='required'>*</span> </label>
<input type='text' id='email' name='email'><br><span class='err_label'></span><br>
<input type='reset' name='resetbtn' id='resetbtn' value='Reset'>
<input type='submit' name='submitbtn' id='submitbtn' value='Register'>
</form>
I want to display the validation error message in span with class err_label for each form control.
I tried something like this:
$(element).next().find('.err_label').html(error);
and
$(element).find('.err_label').html(error);
etc..
but no luck. I think the problem may be simple but I can't get the correct solution.. someone can help me..
Try :
errorPlacement: function(error, element) {
$(element).nextAll('.err_label').eq(0).html(error);
}
