[validate] Please add IP validation to Jquery validate plugin

[aerobson@…]

I would like to add IP validation to the Jquery validate plugin. Here is the heart of the code that I use:

ipaddress: function(value, element) {

author: Ann Robson

return this.optional(element)

/([0-9]|[1-9][0-9]|1([0-9][0-9])|2([0-4][0-9]|5[0-5]))\.([0-9]|[1-9][0-9]|1([0-9][0-9])|2([0-4][0-9]|5[0-5]))\.([0-9]|[1-9][0-9]|1([0-9][0-9])|2([0-4][0-9]|5[0-5]))\.([0-9]|[1-9][0-9]|1([0-9][0-9])|2([0-4][0-9]|5[0-5]))$/i.test(value);

},

I will attach my updated version which uses the most recent jquery.validate.js file as a base.

BEFORE YOU DELETE: the instruction on the Jquery validate home page say to do exactly this, and there is no validate plugin bug submit option, so I'm not sure how else I can submit this enhancement.
