jQuery Validation Plugin 1.8.1 Save & Submit Button

I am Using jQuery Validation Plugin 1.8.1.Here my Web form contains various controls like Text box, dropdown List ,User Controls etc. Each control has validations (Required fields, Emails)
input id="email" name="email" class="{validate:{required:true,email:true}}"
Now my page has Save & Submit button, here as per the requirement if the user clicks on save button the user would able to save the form (incomplete form also) , in this case user should not be prompted for required field(if he is leaving any).The data would save as Draft he may re-continue later but if he Clicks on Submit all validations as tagged with each controls would apply.

    <script type="text/javascript">

        $().ready(function () {
            $.validator.setDefaults({
         invalidHandler: function (form, validator) {  }
    });

    var container = $("div.container");

    $("#form1").validate({
        errorContainer: container,
        errorLabelContainer: $("ul", container),
        wrapper: 'li',
        meta: "validate"
    });
});
    </script>

Above is the Base validation method written in Master Page. Any idea how to achieve this???

For the save button simply set the class to "cancel" instead of "submit". This will skip the validation.

Answer can be seen here:

jQuery validate(); Only validate on click of one type of submit button
