>>so are you suggesting DO NOT DO SERVER SIDE
VALIDATION if it causes any overhead?
Actually not, what I do is:
- for the public site, I do not count on client having the visitor
Javascript enabled
(the site will look clumsy for the visitor, but still functional,
and it's HIS problem)
so I use only server side. But this is only for some exceptional
forms, my customers
don't do much data entry on their sites.
- for the administration part of the CMS, users (not visitors) cannot
enter the admin
if they have Javascript disabled, so I do all validation I can
client side.
It is in THIS situation I say Ajax and server side would be a
useless overhead.
Only a couple of items must be validated on server, and yes, in this
case I could do it
using Ajax (and I'll probably will soon or later), but I just do it
in the form process template.
