Interesting. Could you elaborate a bit. I'm guessing you're thinking something more than client-side javascript validation (since JS can be disabled) but once it's server side it seems like it gets into the business layer pretty quickly. In Mach-II, there is an EventBeanFilter that will take a bunch of form fields and use it to populate a bean. There is also a ValidateFormObject filter that will then call a validate() method on the bean. Is this counter to what you are saying? -Phil ---------------------------------------------------------- You are subscribed to cfcdev.
