I have the following:

<script>
$(function(){
jQuery.validator.addMethod("notEqual", function(value, element, param) {
return this.optional(element) || value !== param;
}, "Please select an option");
$('form').validate({
rules:{
'reporting_year': {
notEqual: "-1"
}
}
});
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
Everyone's favorite browser, IE7 (IE10 w/compatibility really) is reporting the following error in the console:
SCRIPT3: Member not found.
jquery.js, line 2525 character 4
Of course IE8 and above work fine, but my client is using IE7.

Looks like it's a bug with IE10 in compatibility mode as it is reported to work in IE7. But there are some jquery workarounds posted here: http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/12577
