Conditional validation in MVC3

Question

In MVC3, there are a way to add or stop validation in a field depending on the value of a drop-drown list with JQuery? I have been trying with Fluent Validation, but with no luck.

Are you using unobtrusive validation? Is so, look at the html and you will see that there are some html5 attributes on your input, something like this:

<input name="product" id="product" data-val="true" data-val-required="Product is required" />

I suppose you could use jQuery to remove the data-val attribute and then the jQuery Validator will skip this item.

$("#product").data("val", false);

Well, that's my guess, try it yourself.

you should use jQuery AddClass Rules

Create jQuery Class

 $.validator.addClassRules({
    Req: {
        required: true
    }
});

Validate the Filed by checking the selected value

$("#Selector").blur(function () {
    var Val= $("#Selector").val();

    if (Val == "Compare to the String") {

            $("#Selector").addClass("Req");
    }
    else {
        $("#Selector").removeClass("Req");
    }
});

this solution should work, but is not. I'm working on other workarounds that I will post if they works.
