Answer 1

If you're talking about using ASP.NET MVC 2 Preview 2 or any other generated client side validation that uses the jQuery Validation library, you should check out errorLabelContainer and errorContainer in the documentation for jQuery Validation library.

That should get your client side validation looking more like the server side validation summary. :-)

Ps. If you can't alter the $('myForm').Validate()'s options, just use the $.validator.setDefaults(); approach. Although you could get into trouble with more than one form / validation summary on a page.
