All,

I am trying to use JQuery's URL Validator plugin.

http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/Validation/Methods/url

I have a text box that has a URL. I want to write a function which takes the textbox value, uses the jquery's validator plugin to validate urls and returns true or false.

Something like Ex:

function validateURL(textval)
{
 // var valid = get jquery's validate plugin return value
  if(valid)
  {
    return true;
  }
  return false;
}

I wanted this to be a reusable function..

Thanks
