Hello Dhaval,

 We are not aware of this problem. Could you please provide a sample project? Just attach it to this forum thread.

Hi Atanas ,
                  Thanks for your reply.. Let me explain my problem in detail..
Here it is Property Declation for email in Model:

<DisplayName("Email ID")>
<Required(ErrorMessageResourceName:="Err_NameRequired", ErrorMessageResourceType:=GetType(Resources.ScwmCtsRes))>
<RegularExpression("^[_a-zA-Z0-9-]+(\.[_a-zA-Z0-9-]+)*@[a-zA-Z0-9-]+(\.[a-zA-Z0-9-]+)*\.(([0-9]{1,3})|([a-zA-Z]{2,3}))$", ErrorMessageResourceName:="Err_EmailNotValid", ErrorMessageResourceType:=GetType(Resources.ScwmCtsRes))>
Public Property emailid As String

Same Property in Editor Template:

<td ><strong><%= Html.Label(Resources.ScwmCtsView.Client_emailid)%></strong></td>
<td ><strong><%= Html.EditorFor(Function(model) model.emailid)%></strong><font color="red"><%= Html.ValidationMessageFor(Function(model) model.emailid)%></font></td>

Now when i try to insert new record in the Telerik Grid, i am getting the following error in jquery.validate.min.js:

$.validator.methods[method] is undefined
            (function($){$.extend($.fn,{validate:function(options){if(!this.length){options&&options.debug&&window.console&&console.warn("nothing selected, can't validate, returning

and Insert is working well if i remove the the regular expression validation from property declaration that is:

<DisplayName("Email ID")>
<Required(ErrorMessageResourceName:="Err_NameRequired", ErrorMessageResourceType:=GetType(Resources.ScwmCtsRes))>
Public Property emailid As String

Hi Dhaval,

 I am afraid I can't reproduce this error locally. Could you please attach a sample application?

Hi Atanas,
                 Here i am providing you with the sample project file, plz check it out. I have used regular expression in phone number and email id both and it is not working and giving me the same error..

               Waiting for your reply...

             Thanks and Regards,

Hi Dhaval,

 The problem is that two different versions of jquery.validate.min.js are included. Remove the one included in the master page and the problem would disappear. Or simply include the version from ~/Scripts/2010.2.930.

I am attaching the updated project.
