Hi
I don't know what is going but my jquery validate plugin(1.5.5) is not working and I am not sure for how long since I do most of my testing on firefox.
The problem is this I go to one of my forms that jquery validate on it and hit my "create" button my validation kicks in as it should and does this right in all browsers including IE8. Now where it does not work is when I do this.
I choose the first dropdown list and choose something. Then hit "create" now all validation errors should show up expect the one for the first dropdown box.
It does this in all browsers except in IE 8. I get this

This is what is on line 890
return options.length > 0 && ( element.type == "select-multiple" || ($.browser.msie && !(options[0].attributes['value'].specified) ? options[0].text : options[0].value).length > 0);
This like the whole method block.
methods: {
// http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/Validation/Methods/required
required: function(value, element, param) {
// check if dependency is met
if ( !this.depend(param, element) )
return "dependency-mismatch";
switch( element.nodeName.toLowerCase() ) {
case 'select':
var options = $("option:selected", element);
return options.length > 0 && ( element.type == "select-multiple" || ($.browser.msie && !(options[0].attributes['value'].specified) ? options[0].text : options[0].value).length > 0);
case 'input':
if ( this.checkable(element) )
return this.getLength(value, element) > 0;
default:
return $.trim(value).length > 0;
}
},
Not sure what is going on.
