I am looking to use the Jquery Validate combined with Tooltipster in a similar way to the example provided by Sparky on Feb 7th '13: How to display messages from jQuery Validate plugin inside of Tooltipster tooltips?
The difference being that the validation method is via a script function and not a form submit. I also want to attach the tooltips to a class instead of the whole form inputs. Once validation is complete the function calls another function.
It works but shows the following warning:
Non-standard document.all property was used. Use W3C standard document.getElementById() instead.
which I believe document.all is deprecated and not existent in future browser versions. Yet I don't understand why my code is showing the warning! I have eliminated all other possibilities of the cause withing my code. So I think its either something I am not seeing or the Tooltips + Validation combined libraries which is causing the warning.
Here is my JS code:
// initialize tooltipster on text input elements
$('.valid1').tooltipster({
trigger: 'custom',
onlyOne: false,
position: 'right'
});
// initialize validate plugin on the form
var validator = $('#propCreate').validate({
onsubmit: false,
errorPlacement: function (error, element) {
$(element).tooltipster('update', $(error).text());
$(element).tooltipster('show');
},
success: function (label, element) {
$(element).tooltipster('hide');
},
rules: {
pkg: { required: true },
TCaccept: { required: true }
},
messages: {
TCaccept: "Please check acceptance of our terms.",
pkg: "Please select suitable package."
},
submitHandler: function (form) {
}
});
//Validation
// this is to validate terms checkbox & Pkg
$("#btnNext").click(function () {
if (validator.form()) {
btnNextContinued()
}
});
Does anybody have a fix/workaround for this or can show me where I am going wrong?
UPDATE : Following great observation by Sparky and his helpful comments - A bug in Firebug was the cause of a false positive warning. Tooltipster with Validate radio's and checkbox validation without a form submit works fine at this time.
