Hi Anas,

I am not sure whether I got you right, but to me it sounds as if you  
are trying to use client side form validation. I.e., are you trying to  
validate your form data before it is sent back to the server?

In that case, there seems to be a nice Rails plugin called  
LiveValidation; it takes your model validations and builts matching  
client-side validation scripts in Javascript. See:  
[http://livevalidation.rubyforge.org/](http://livevalidation.rubyforge.org/)

It’s built on top of the LiveValidation JS library:  
[http://www.livevalidation.com/](http://www.livevalidation.com/)  
Maybe these meet your needs.
