cf has built-in cfform fields validation. you can invoke the built-in client-side validation by using VALIDATE attribute of <cfinput> tags, possibly in conjunction with some other attributes, like PATTERN if you are doing regexp validation, or RANGE for range validation. all details are in the cfml reference manual - download from adobe.com if you do not have one.
