So by default, jQuery Validation creates a 'label' element with the error message after the offending input field with the generic messages (that Im fine with). However, I want the label to look just like the jQuery UI alert message that you see on the themeroller site.
So instead of the default:
<label for="fieldname" generated="true">JQUERY VALIDATE ERROR APPEARS HERE</label>
I want validate to use the following "wrapper html":
<div class="ui-widget">
<div class="ui-state-error ui-corner-all">
<p>
<span class="ui-icon ui-icon-alert"></span>
<strong>Alert:</strong> JQUERY VALIDATE ERROR MESSAGE WOULD APPEAR HERE
</p>
</div>
</div>
I see several ways of changing error classes, message classes, or even error elements - but not the 'wrapper html' of the error message. Anyone gotten this right?
