    copied!<p>I have previous experience with this plug-in. From my knowledge, try this,</p> <pre><code>&lt;script id="demo" type="text/javascript"&gt; jQuery(document).ready(function($) { var validator = $("#your_form_id").validate({ rules: { fn: "required", ln: "required", em: { required: true, email: true, }, }, messages: { fn: "Please enter your first name.", ln: "Please enter your last name.", em: { required: "Please enter your email address.", email: "Please enter a valid email address.", }, }, errorPlacement: function(error, element) { error.appendTo( element.parent().next() ); }, success: function(label) { label.html("OK").addClass("checked"); } }); }); &lt;/script&gt; </code></pre> <p>And in your HTML;</p> <pre><code>&lt;input type="text" name="fn" value="" class="required" title="Please enter your first name." id="fn"&gt;&lt;span class="status"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;input type="text" name="ln" value="" class="required" title="Please enter your last name." id="ln"&gt;&lt;span class="status"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;input type="text" name="em" value="" class="required" id="em"&gt;&lt;span class="status"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt; </code></pre> <p>This will display error message to <code>&lt;span class="status"&gt;</code> near to the corresponding input element. Also style your <code>success</code> and <code>error</code> messages using CSS;</p> <pre><code>#your_form_id label.error { background:url("error.png") no-repeat 0px 0px; color: #CC0000; } #your_form_id label.checked { background:url("checked.png") no-repeat 0px 0px; color: #008000; } #your_form_id .success_msg { color: #008000; } </code></pre> <p>And if you still want to use <code>Meta</code>, below is the complete code, worked FINE for me</p> <pre><code>&lt;head&gt; &lt;script src="jquery-1.6.1.js" type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;script src="jquery.validate.js" type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;script src="jquery.metadata.js" type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt; $(document).ready(function() { $("#commentForm").validate({meta: "validate"}); }); &lt;/script&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;form id="commentForm" method="post" action="test.php"&gt; &lt;input id="fn0" type="text" name="fn" value="" class="required" title="Please enter your first name."&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;input id="ln1" type="text" name="ln" value="" class="required" title="Please enter your last name."&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;input id="em2" type="text" name="em" value="" class="{validate:{required:true, email:true, messages:{required:'Please enter your email address', email:'Please enter a valid email address'}}}"/&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;input class="submit" type="submit" value="Submit"/&gt; &lt;/form&gt; &lt;/body&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>Hope this helps.</strong></p>
