>>> What if the user has javascript turned off? >> Furthermore: what if he does not have Internet? Hmmm? > .... or a computer
Well, snide remarks aside - it *is* an issue. I have a particular application running where I've found that almost 35% of the folks using it do not have javascript enabled. They're not going to turn it on, even if they knew how, and they represent a good portion of the core customers of the client in question. So, form validation is going to *have* to work, and report meaningful messages back to the user, *without* javascript. You're going to have to decide whether you can afford to block these people, or work with methods that will provide them a meaningful user experience plus the needed security for your site. I've really had to think about the methods I've been using on my sites. Validation using Javascript/CFFORM plus cfqueryparam ain't cutting it.
