I want to disable/enable navigation based on whether the current form has all it's required fields filled correctly or not. Is there a property or some JQuery function to call which will tell me if the form is complete or not?

                    this question is very broad - form validation is always a very customized thing to be done, can you provide a code example? – Zathrus Writer Sep 26 '12 at 16:22

        To answer this as broadly as possible with regards to today's standards, you might want to look into HTML5 form validation.

        got it thanks.
The valid() function is what I was looking for. I had been playing with JQuery Validation plugin but didn't see this key function.
how to check if a form is valid programmatically using jQuery Validation Plugin
