Tony, I have to agree with Critz. Think of it in terms of performance when using the cfform and cfinput tags.
Would you rather the server figure out the javascript that your page will do, or would you rather insert your own javascript and simply have it loaded in page. If you know what you want to do, don't make the server figure it out for you. Same thing goes with cfinput and cfupdate. In general tell the server what to do, things will do faster for you. If you really like the MM JS functions then use them once in a page, view the source and copy the validation functions into a snippet in studio. Then when you need to use it, YOU put in the page. It will give you a great deal more control in your code and also give you that mighty focus() touch at the end you so desire. I don't know if it would make a _huge_ difference in performance but it would definitely have some increase in your page processing time.
