I hadn’t tried that but I have now and it worked a treat, thanks! I didn’t know it was possible as you can probably tell I’m new to javascript/jquery. I’ll update the post and point any unfortunates like myself directly to your comment its a far better solution.

Have you tried to declare the options outside?

var EnquiryValidation = {
rules: {
EnquiryText: { required: true }
},
messages: {
EnquiryText: “Enquiry must contain an entry.”
}
};
$(”#Enquiry”).validate(EnquiryValidation );

and then change the values likey this:

EnquiryValidation.messages.EnquiryText = ‘NEW MESSAGE’;
