i think combodate is hidden fields and jquery validate by default ignore combodate so add ignore: [], in validate example link is here : [http://jsfiddle.net/5m6gG/439/]

@bipin244 I don't think that's a good solution because there are situations where a field may be hidden because it's irrelevant to the current state of the form, and only becomes relevant based on the value of another field.

I propose using the .sr-only technique introduced in Bootstrap to hide the actual input field. This way the field will not be considered hidden by jQuery (the default ignore value is :hidden) and validation will kick in.
