Title: Fixed error thrown when element missing name

I have the following code

```html

I agree not to send any unsolicited email, or send email to addresses purchased, rented or otherwise obtained from a third party. I understand that port 25 is blocked by default and I have to request that it be opened. I also understand that if I violate the rules set by Server Blaze that port 25 will be closed.

Done

```

and in JavaScript I have this

```javascript
$("#myform").validate()
```

The code always errors out and submits regardless of if a name is entered into the name field or not. I have tracked the error down to this line:

https://github.com/jzaefferer/jquery-validation/blob/master/jquery.validate.js#L729

With this PR, I fix the error in the code by skipping the name check if it doesn't exit.
