</html>How can I validate each of (upper textboxes) using AJAX to see if the username and password is correct and if they are not correct, display the error messages in red below each respective textbox. Here is my code. Any suggestions would be help. I know I could use the $.ajax() method, but I don't know how I can translate my current validate function into the sensible ajax method.
