Hi, I am having some hard time getting StringLength to be enforced client side. I guess some javascript is out of sync?

I am using Visual Studio 2010, ASP.NET MVC 2.0 (final), created a new MVC web application, created a new user model :

public class UserModel
{
[Required]
[RegularExpression(@"\w+([-+.']\w+)*@\w+([-.]\w+)*\.\w+([-.]\w+)*")]
public string EmailAddress { get; set; }

[Required]
[StringLength(200, MinimumLength = 6)]
public string Password { get; set; }
}

An action set :

[HttpGet]
public ViewResult Create()
{
return View();
}

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Create(UserModel user)
{
if (!ModelState.IsValid)
{
return View();
}
else
{
return Redirect("http://www.bing.com");
}
}

Also created a view for this :

<asp:Content ContentPlaceHolderID="AdditionalHtmlHeaderContent" runat="server">
<script type="text/javascript" src="<%= ResolveUrl("~/Scripts/jquery-1.3.2.js")%>"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="<%= ResolveUrl("~/Scripts/jquery.validate.js")%>"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="<%= ResolveUrl("~/Scripts/xVal.jquery.validate.js")%>"></script>

<%= Html.ClientSideValidation<ConsoleApplication11.Models.UserModel>("user") %>

</asp:Content>

<asp:Content ID="Content2" ContentPlaceHolderID="MainContent" runat="server">

<h2>ViewPage1</h2>

<% using (Html.BeginForm()) {%>
<%: Html.ValidationSummary(true) %>

<fieldset>
<legend>Fields</legend>

<p>
Email address : <%: Html.TextBox("user.EmailAddress") %>
<%: Html.ValidationMessage("user.EmailAddress")%>
</p>
<p>
Password : <%: Html.Password("user.Password") %>
<%: Html.ValidationMessage("user.Password")%>
</p>

<p>
<input type="submit" value="Create" />
</p>
</fieldset>

<% } %>

<div>
<%: Html.ActionLink("Back to List", "Index") %>
</div>

</asp:Content>

Then I referenced the xVal assembly and added

<add namespace="xVal.Html"/>

in my master Web.config

Uppon running, in all browsers, all rules are enforced on the client side too, except the StringLength one..
