Not sure that you meant

$(document).ready(function() {
    $("#form1").submit(function() {
        $("#txt1").val("123456");

        $("#form1").validate({
            rules: {
                    txt1: {
                            maxlength: 5
                    }
            }
        });
    });
});

Hi,

As you helped me in the other post:
https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/27291256/jquery-plug-in.html

I want to incorporate this to a form.

The Form should have a submit button.
when I submit that , the plug in should be called to validate it.

I was able to get it working with out the form.
But when I insert the form, I am having issue in passing the value from Form to the validate function.
which is what i have suggested...Please try

Thanks for the links.
Can you please tell me what I am missing.

On submit I am able to call the function I want.
But I am not able to pass the value from Form to function
Please point me to the exact way I can pass the values?

<form id="form1" method="" action="">
  <input id="phone" type="text" name="phone" size="20">
  <input class="submit" type="submit" value="submit"/>

</form>

Open in new window

$(document).ready(function() {
    $("#form1").submit(function() {
        //$("#form1").val("123456");

 
		alert($("#phone").validate1());
    });
});

Open in new window

(function($){
    $.fn.validate1 = function() {
 
      // var str = $(this).val(); 
	   var str = '454550987111';
       var re = new RegExp("^[0-9]{3}[\- ]?[0-9]{2}[\- ]?[0-9]{4}$", "g");
       var myArray = str.match(re);
	   alert(str);
       if ( myArray != null) 
       { 
	     alert("hi");
          return true;
       }
	   alert("no");
       return false;
 };

Open in new window

if you are talking about how to pass the value of the field to validate method, then uncomment line 4 and comment line 5
