Modifying JavaScript .validate options.

[Bradley Moore (orangexception)]

I'm wanting to throw errors in a different place than standard. The
jQuery Validate plugin lets you do this by using "errorPlacement"
option.

The ValidateThis script uses {ignore:'.ignore'} by default. Is there a
way through the ValidateThis to override/set the jQuery Validate
options?

Here's what I'm doing now, but it'd be nice to do this an easier way.
```
#getColdboxOCM().get( "ValidateThis" ).getValidationScript(
objectType= "form/json" ,
formName= rc.form.name ).ReplaceAll(
"ignore:'\.ignore'" ,
'"ignore": ".ignore" ,
"errorPlacement": function\( error , element \) \{
console.log\( "errorPlacement" \);
error.appendTo\( \$\( "##error-placement-target" \) \);
\} ,
"debug": "true"
' )#
```

You should be able to just set the defaults in a seperate script block.

Here's one I've used before:

<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(function($) {
jQuery.validator.setDefaults({
errorClass: 'field-error-message',
validClass: 'field-isvalid',
errorElement: 'label'
});
});
</script>

That's fantastic. Thanks.
