Help needed with custom jquery validation and unobtrusive javascipt?

There's a couple issues here. One is you're trying to mix unobtrusive and regular jquery validation. If you want to use validate like this then you need to make sure jquery.validate.unobtrusive.

Js is NOT included. This is because jquery.validate.unobtrusive. Js automatically parses and produces a validator for the document and the very first thing that validate does is check if there's an existing validator and exits if there is.

Although I haven't tested this, I think all you're missing is to wire up the element that you want to validate with the nohtml rule. Something like this.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
