jquery validate always returning true
问题 I am using MVC4 w/JQuery and I have a form I created using the @Ajax.BeginForm. It has required fields (set on its view model). I am trying to validate the form before it is submitted back; however, it does not seem to validate. I had a submit button originally and it was just submitting the form. I changed the submit button to a regular button and tried calling $('#formname').validate() but it always returns true (even tho required fields are not filled in). Other views seem to work fine
