Contribution to addMethod:

Default Value

If a default value is used in the form, by way of the title attribute, this method will check that the field value is not equal to that value, therfore will not validate if is.

jQuery.validator.addMethod(

"defaultVal", function(value, element){

if (jQuery(element).val() != jQuery(element).attr('title')) {return true;} return false;

}, "Please enter a value"

);

Line: if (jQuery(element).val() != jQuery(element).attr('title')) {return true;} return false;

Should be: return (jQuery(element).val() !== jQuery(element).attr('title')) ? true : false;
