I have this validator form code I have inherited which I am getting this error:
$.validator.methods[method] is undefined
and under that it's showing
'maxlength:$.validator.format("Please enter no more than {0} characters.")'
I have read that it could be spelling mistake or method being called that's not there. But can't see it.. even read about remote data element could be causing issue but taken it out it breaks.
edit: I have uploaded none compressed js code and error points to this line
var result = $.validator.methods[method].call( this, element.value.replace(/
/g, ""), element, rule.parameters );
code:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#regForm").validate({
