>>Client-side validation is going to have to server-side validation, too, which means the server is going to have to handle all the validation that the client-side does. So there's just as much stress on the server.
Not really, because server side validation is done only once, by the submitted template in a whole, in only one HTTP request that you need anyway to get the form executed. Using Ajax for client side validation requires at least one HTTP request per field validated. One must not forget than an Ajax call IS an HTTP request, thus is almost as much overhead than refreshing the form. The only advantage is that you stay in the same page, and you do not have as much data to receive from the server. But the rest of all the overhead implied by an HTTP request is still there. -- _______________________________________ REUSE CODE!
