check if validation is correctly performed with jquery

[Alfonso Martínez de Lizarrondo]

I think that I've seen some other people claiming problems about that, so we should verify that it works, perhaps even including it in the jquery sample or as a more complex sample for jquery.

Please have a look at sample file.

jQuery Validator will rather not validate CKEditor but it can validate textarea, however there are two problems I have found with this issue:

1. jQuery Validator does not validate disabled fields.

This can be omitted with setting ignore: ''

2. It seems that validation happens before textarea gets updated.

This can be omited with the following code:

editor = $('#editor1').ckeditorGet();
editor.updateElement();

After you do those two things it's all about how good you know the validator and JavaScript.

As for the second issue I'm not sure if this shouldn't be done by default by jQuery adapter? Any extra thoughts anyone?

Anyway I'm confirming this task - It will just be a matter whether to leave it or change it to bug.

This bug has been fixed during general jQuery adapter bug fixing #10281.

You still need to tell jQuery Validator to validate hidden fields using ignore: but now updateElement is called properly.
