Answer 1

jQuery Validate doesn't understand cultures.

I believe for dates, it just calls the javascript: new Date(value).

You can fix this with a globalization plugin and a bit of javascript.

Microsoft wrote a globalization plugin here: https://github.com/jquery/globalize

Then you want to replace the validation method with something like this:

$.validator.methods.date = function (value, element) {
  return this.optional(element) || Globalize.parseDate(value);
}

You probably also want to replace the other methods for numbers etc. - have a look at the bottom of jquery.validate.js for examples.
