Validating numbers with comma’s with jQuery

Ever turned on the client side validation in ASP MVC?

Seen that numbers with comma’s aren’t valid?

Here is a small solution for that problem.

You can override the methods of the jQuery validation plugin.
Insert this code in a new javascript code file and make sure you reference it as last.
Only if it’s referenced after the jQuery validation plugin, it will override the code in the plugin.

$.validator.methods.range = function (value, element, param) {
var globalizedValue = value.replace(",", ".");
return this.optional(element) || (globalizedValue >= param[0] && globalizedValue <= param[1]);
} 

$.validator.methods.number = function (value, element) {
return this.optional(element) || /^-?(?:\d+|\d{1,3}(?:[\s\.,]\d{3})+)(?:[\.,]\d+)?$/.test(value);
}
