如何把php字符串jQuery验证错误信息

Question

I'm using jquery validation to validate a form the js code looks like this:

form.validate({
        messages: {
            years_of_experience: {
                range: "<?php echo Translation::tr('profileform.error.yearsOfExperience');?>"
            }
        },
        rules: {
            years_of_experience: {
                range: [0, 100]
            }
        }
});     

Translation::tr('profileform.error.yearsOfExperience') -> makes a simple mysql call to the database and returns a string (the error message for the element) but the problem is that i can't display the error message (i get blank).

if i change the javasctipt code like this it works just fine:

form.validate({
        messages: {
            years_of_experience: {
                range: "Please select a number from 0 to 100"
            }
        },
        rules: {
            years_of_experience: {
                range: [0, 100]
            }
        }
});  

Can you help me ?

Thanks

Answer 1

The quotes around the php code tell javascsript it's just a string nothing is interpreting it. Try

    form.validate({
        messages: {
            years_of_experience: {
                range: <?php echo json_encode( Translation::tr('profileform.error.yearsOfExperience') ); ?>;
            }
        },
        rules: {
            years_of_experience: {
                range: [0, 100]
            }
        }
   });  

It's ugly... but that should work.
