### Including it on your page
|
|
|
33 |
|
|
|
34 |
Include jQuery and the plugin on a page. Then select a form to validate and call the `validate` method.
|
|
|
35 |
|
|
|
36 |
```html
|
|
|
37 |
<form>
|
|
|
38 |
<input required>
|
|
|
39 |
</form>
|
|
|
40 |
<script src="jquery.js"></script>
|
|
|
41 |
<script src="jquery.validate.js"></script>
|
|
|
42 |
<script>
|
|
|
43 |
$("form").validate();
|
|
|
44 |
</script>
|
|
|
45 |
```
|
|
|
46 |
|
|
|
47 |
Alternatively include jQuery and the plugin via requirejs in your module.
|
|
|
48 |
|
|
|
49 |
```js
|
|
|
50 |
define(["jquery", "jquery.validate"], function( $ ) {
|
|
|
51 |
$("form").validate();
|
|
|
52 |
});
|
|
|
53 |
```
|
|
|
54 |
|
|
|
55 |

**IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT EMAIL VALIDATION**. As of version 1.12.0 this plugin is using the same regular expression that the [HTML5 specification suggests for browsers to use](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/forms.html#valid-e-mail-address). We will follow their lead and use the same check. If you think the specification is wrong, please report the issue to them. If you have different requirements, consider [using a custom method](http://jqueryvalidation.org/jQuery.validator.addMethod/).
