I would like to hook into the javascript validation. The problem is when you have a really long form and you have a scrollbar and you are scrolled down to the bottom of the page and click submit. If you have a validation error in the top of the page you won't notice the error and the user can not understand why the will not submit.
Therefore I will hook into the validation and do scrollToError or just throw an alert box.
Does anybody have any pointers on how to achieve this?

I prefer to use the jQuery Form Validation plugin as it offers a great amount of options with regards to showing messages, message placement etc

Just make sure to set the correct validation group, should be set to the clientid so <%= this.ClientId %> should do it
