title: How to perform validation on submit only - jQuery Validation plugin
body: <p>I want the jQuery Validate plugin to only display the validation messages only upon form submit and not when the focus from a input field is lost. How do Ii achieve this?</p>
  
  <p>Right now I am following this pattern, which leads to validation after lost focus event:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;html&gt;
  &lt;head&gt;
   &lt;script&gt;
    $(document).ready(function(){
      $("#commentForm").validate();
    });
    &lt;/script&gt;
  
  &lt;/head&gt;
  &lt;body&gt;
  &lt;form class="cmxform" id="commentForm" method="get" action=""&gt;
   &lt;fieldset&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;
       &lt;label for="cname"&gt;Name&lt;/label&gt;
       &lt;em&gt;*&lt;/em&gt;&lt;input id="cname" name="name" size="25" class="required" minlength="2" /&gt;
     &lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/fieldset&gt;
  &lt;/form&gt;
  &lt;/body&gt;
  &lt;/html&gt;
  </code></pre>
