jQuery-Validation-Bootstrap-tooltip

A drop in extension replacing error labels from jQuery Validation plugin with Twitter Bootstrap tooltips

Requirements

• jQuery
• jQuery Validation
• Twitter Bootstrap (Tested with v2.3.2, v3.3.5 and v4.1.2. v5 is reported to work as well)

Usage

Tooltip options are given either through an element's data attributes or as objects set during validate initializing. An example would be:

    $("#theform").validate({
        rules: {
           thefield: { digits:true, required: true }
        },
        tooltip_options: {
           thefield: { placement: 'left' }
        }
     });

ASP MVC developers

There is an equivalent project that caters to jQuery Validation Unobtrusive, johnnyreilly/jQuery.Validation.Unobtrusive.Native and also provides tooltip errors
