First of all, why would you submit form if validation is not passed? Try this, if validate really validates:

$(function(){
    $(".button").click(function(){
        var myform = $("#myform");
        if (myform.validate()) {        
            $.post("process.php", myform.serialize(), function(data){
                $('#message').html(data);
            });            
        }
        return false;
    });     
});
