Ditto... but for client side validation I seldom use CFFORM unless it is a very simple form. CFFORM is good for required fields and for some validation of data types entered in fields. It falls short when there is any conditional validation (i.e., the validation for one field depends on the response made in a previous field) and it falls short on the aesthetics of reporting errors. Unless they've added something new I'm unaware of, it still uses an alert to show errors. Generally I'll use jQuery validation or write my own script. The user experience can be much improved from CFFORM validation.
