Re: [jQuery] Re: (validate) form field validation with field id doesn't work.

yeah . that's what I think would be some confusion coz it might be that multiple  fields that have same name but Ids would be unique throughout page.

So, I was really wondering, if there is any way to setup rules and validations based on ids and ignore names completely.

If you change the name of your field, you'd have to change your rules
in the validation options from "firstname" to "firstname1" also.
