jQuery Validation Not Working on Iphone

I have linked a form from campaign monitor to a mobile site and I am using jQuery validate for validation. All works well on desktop browsers but when I check on my Iphone the validations does not work.

I am not the experience using JQuery so any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you in advance!

Live Demo http://files.perfectday.gb.com/internal/stackoverflow/mobile-form/get-your-coupon.php

My validation JQuery and form are as follows.

    <script type="text/javascript">
    $.validator.methods.equal = function(value, element, param) {
        return value == param;
    };
    $(document).ready(function(){
    $("#subForm").validate({
            rules: {
                math: {
                    equal: <?php echo $randomNumTotal; ?>   
                }
            },
            messages: {
                math: "Try again!!"
            }
        });
    });
    </script>


<!-- Form -->
    <form action="http://perfectday.createsend.com/t/j/s/nyuyh/" method="post" id="subForm">

        <div class="name">
            <label for="name">Name:<span>*</span></label><br>

(3 year later update): I've also found issues with with iPhones and jQuery.validate. Although the validation was applying, the first field was not scrolling into view. To get around this, I just updated my .invalidHandler() method to include:

$("foo").validate({
  invalidHandler: function(e, validator) {
    if(window.navigator.userAgent.match(/iphone/i)) {
      window.setTimeout(function() {
        $("html,body").animate({
          scrollTop: $(validator.errorList[0].element).offset().top
        });
      }, 0);
    }
  }
});

I had the same issue on the iPhone with jQuery version 1.6.1+ and Validations plugin version 1.9

The workaround was to configure the plugin to not validate on form submit:

$("form").validate({
   onsubmit: false
});

Validate the form and submit programmatically:

if( $("form").valid() ){
  // post validation code

  form.submit()
}
