But if I Ajax the data over to CF code and use it to validate instead of js, which just provides interface feedback, then I've accomplished all methods at once... true validation... -----Original Message----- From: Bader, Terrence C CTR MARMC, 231 [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, April 16, 2007 4:09 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Client-side validation or Server-side Validation? Agreed, client side validation is only for client side user ease of use and not for true validation of data being submitted to your data definitions. ~Terry -----Original Message----- From: Dan G.

No. My point was don't use AJAX to do server-side validation on stuff you can do solely in the client. You need the server-side validation regardless of whether or not you do any client-side validation. - Dan ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Create Web Applications With ColdFusion MX7 & Flex 2.
