This definitely drives the same point in which many have continuously repeated many posts ago. "Know your audience". Javascript is the UI eye-candy. If majority of your audience is in a prohibitive environment where rich UI can not be served effectively, then you may not even need to use JS or AJAX. Obviously, if your js on your app benefits 95+% of you audience, add a few hours and a few lines of code time to implement js. > -----Original Message----- > From: Les Mizzell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, April 18, 2007 2:58 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: Re: Client-side validation or Server-side Validation? > > > Is it accurate to say that once the submit button is clicked, Jorn's > plug-in > > validates everything server-side first based on the id of the form, > > then once that's complete, with no errors, the form will be submitted to > the > > action page automatically, in this case ex2_process.cfm, and perform the > > server-side > > validation? > > ....and if javascript is OFF, which I'm finding to be the case in more of > the users of the forms in question I'm working on than I though - then > basically there *is* no client-side validation anyway. > > I gotta be wondering at this point - why bother with client-side at all > if I'm finding close to 35% of my specific users have javascript off? > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| ColdFusion MX7 and Flex 2 Build sales & marketing dashboard RIAâs for your business.
