Jorn,
One thing Id like to see is a way to reset a specific fields error status.
I wrote this as a hack:
// for any input field in the signup
form, add a onfocus event
$("#frmSignUp input").focus(
// everything in this
function is executed
function (){
// $(this)
performs the operation on the current jQuery object
// this removes
the error class from the field
$(this).removeClass("error");
// the label
name is equal to the field "name" attribute
// for checkbox
and radio elements and equal to the "id"
// attribute for
all other fields
var sLabelName =
($(this)[0].type == "checkbox" || $(this)[0].type == "radio") ?
$(this)[0].name : $(this)[0].id ;
// remove the
error message for the current field
$("[EMAIL
PROTECTED]"
+ $(this)[0].name + "[EMAIL PROTECTED]").html("");
}
);
Also, maybe this has changed in beta 2, but Id think using the ID attribute
for some fields and the NAME attribute for others is confusing for the error
labels. Id rather see the use of just the NAME attributeso its consistent
across the board.

Subject: [jQuery] Release: Validation plugin beta 2
The validation plugin beta 2 is out! If you are already working with it: A
update is recommended. If not, and you need client-side validation (pure or
mixed with AJAX requests), check it out:
http://bassistance.de/jquery-plugins/jquery-plugin-validation/
Recent changes:
* Improved dependecy feature by adding two custom expressions:
":blank" to select elements with an empty value and ":filled" to select
elements with a value, both excluding whitespace
* Added a resetForm() method to the validator: Resets each form
element (using the form plugin, if available), removes classes on invalid
elements and hides all error messages
* Fixed docs for validator.showErrors()
* Fixed error label creation to always use html() instead of text(),
allowing arbitrary HTML passed in as messages
* Fixed error label creation to use specified error class
Have fun!
