I'm using the jQuery validation plugin, and I want to add a class to the input fields that doesn't validate, i.e. add a red border.

Anyone know how to do this?

A: 

This form has the effect you want and uses the same plug-in, perhaps you could peek under the covers to see how they did it:

jQuery Validation

The validation plugin adds the class 'error' to the input with the validation error.

Therefore you can style it independently.

For example:

.error {
  border: 1px solid red;
}
