>>Does the JS and CF validation have to be totally independent in
functionality?
Basically yes ;-)
I mean:
1º Javascript is so useful for so many things, I simply won't let a user
fill a form if they have Javascript disable, period.
2º the main reason for validating data client side is for the user's
comfort, so that he can correct mistakes right away
before submitting the form.
2º Starting for that, once a field has been validated on client side,
the only reason it could be invalid on the server
would be because some hacker is horsing around with my system. In
that case, the only concern is security and
database integrity, and I don't see why I should give detailed and
polite notice about what he is doing wrong.
CFQUERYPARAM and SQL validation will give me the security I need.
I must also say that in all my applications, forms are mostly used by
the customer to manage his own data
in his own intranet, and I don't remember any issue when the user tried
to goof his own system.
