 * Hi.
    I’ve added some meta boxes to Post. (Not Custom Post Type) Now I need a 
   validation system on inputs. For example I have “Reference Code” and “Weight”
   meta boxes, and both of them have to be numeric (not any other characters) and
   one of them is required. And of course I want if there is an error in validation,
   the post publish does not happen. Is there any built-in wordpress function or
   jQuery class to handle this?
