Datepicker does not trigger Validate once date is selected

[k4t434sispho3nix]

When using both jQuery Validate and jQuery UI's datepicker the standard validation is not triggered for the Datepicker field once a user has selected a date and the datepicker closes.

Quick fix for this one. After messing around with Validate's timing for a while and coming up with a couple very bloated solutions, I found an easy fix for this on the Date picker end.

Simply call your datepicker like this:

$('#date').datepicker({
    onClose: function() {
        $('#date').valid();
    }
});

Is that good enough, or are you looking for an integrated solution?

fix that I use d.datepicker({

onClose: function (dateText, inst) {

d.trigger('blur');

}

});
