Internationalization notes
This info was found
here.
The plugin has localization, just add/import your language file in the <head> tag and all error messages will be displayed in that language.
<script type="text/javascript" src="lib/jquery-validate/jquery.validate.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="lib/jquery-validate/localization/messages_pt.js"></script>
where "messages_pt.js" contains translations of the original english messages of "jquery.validate.js":
/*
* Translated default messages for the jQuery validation plugin.
* Language: PT
*/
jQuery.extend(jQuery.validator.messages, {
required: "Campo obrigatório",
remote: "Corrigir campo",
email: "Endereço inválido",
url: "URL inválido",
date: "Data inválida",
dateISO: "Data inválida (ISO).",
number: "Número inválido",
digits: "Apenas dígitos",
creditcard: "Número de cartão inválido",
equalTo: "Reintroduza o mesmo valor",
accept: "Please enter a value with a valid extension.",
maxlength: $.validator.format("Limite max. de caracteres: {0}"),
minlength: $.validator.format("Introduza pelo menos {0} caracteres"),
rangelength: $.validator.format("O número de caracteres deverá estar compreendido entre {0} e {1}"),
range: $.validator.format("Introduza valor entre {0} e {1}"),
max: $.validator.format("Valor deverá ser inferior ou igual a {0}."),
min: $.validator.format("Valor deverá ser superior ou igual a {0}.")
});So if your app has a language toggle option you can import the respective language file using server side script.
