Is $.formUtils.addValidator usable with non input elements?

[sisao]

I would like to build a custom validator which should contain multiple input elements, but I want to add the data-validation attribute to a div which wraps the inputs.... Is this going to work?

No, you can't use a hidden input? Like:

<form>
  <div id="wrapper">
   text content
   <input type="hidden" data-validation="alphanumeric" value="text content">
  </div>
  </form>

  <script>
    $.validate({
      validateHiddenInputs: true
    });

    $('#wrapper input').validate(function (isValid) {
      console.log('isvalid');
    }); 
  </script>

Yeah, thx, this will do it...
