Using custom jquery validation plugin in ASP.NET MVC 4

Question

I've been wondering how can we use custom validation plugins in ASP.NET MVC 4. I've searched on the web, but I've only found how to create new validation rules creating new attributes. The question here is another: There are lots of validation plugins out there, but how to use them in ASP.NET MVC 4 ? By default the framework uses a simple validation that takes the message and displays it on the side of the field, but how to use another plugins ?

Thanks in advance.

How you use other plugins depends on the plugin in question, surely? — Tim Rogers, Feb 22 '13 at 12:31

You may want to take a look at this this http://thewayofcode.wordpress.com/2012/01/18/custom-unobtrusive-jquery-validation-with-data-annotations-in-mvc-3/ and this http://fluentvalidation.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Custom&referringTitle=Documentation&ANCHOR#CustomValidator and then try to make your own adaptation.

Thanks Felipe, I was really looking to something more "general" than for a specific plugin. I think the first article will do the job. Thanks again. – user1620696 Feb 22 '13 at 12:48
