Hi Guys,

As you may know I've been going throw the JS code and (hopefully!)
making some improvements. ValidateThis currently uses jQuery 1.5.
There are two minor updates which have a few bug fixes in them,
however jQuery is now on 1.6.2.

Reading through the 1.6.2 docs, some things may break:

- The Field Plugin-in uses form.elements, which isn't supported in
jQuery 1.6 anymore. (I see that Dan has released a newer version of
the plugin to solve this)
- The validate plugin on CDN is version 1.8.1 which does support
jQuery 1.6. Version 1.9 does, but is not on CDN
- The other changes I don't think effect ValidateThis

My feeling is to upgrade VT to using jQuery 1.5.2 (not 1.6) unless
people think differently.

Thanks.

- John

That makes sense to me. Now that we've moved to using the CDN for the
plugins, we shouldn't upgrade to a version of jQuery that doesn't have
plugins that work on the CDN yet.

Cheers,
Bob

The latest Field Plug-in should work fine in jQuery 1.6.2--I'm using in production together.

Hi Dan,

I saw you'd updated it - nice work. Is the new version still
compatible with jQuery 1.5.2?

Thanks!

Should be compatible with 1.2+--there really wasn't any major changes.

Great - I thought that was the case but thought I'd better check.
