I've just read some of the JQuery docs, and I'd say it's a clever

with Javascript yet, I don't see the point /for a beginner in this
field/ to try producing production-quality code while learning
Javascript and JQuery at the same time. Play with these packages by
all means, but is that what you're doing right now?
Hi Ron, yes I'm looking at many options at the moment, going with the
one that seems to be closest to working. As you imply above, it's a lot
of effort to learn more than one new thing at a time, so I am trying to
find the easiest solution and if/when it works delve into the reasons
why, and then do more of the same. But jQuery does look like the way
I'll have to go next.
So, I'd say cut the complexity out altogether. Make the input
validation work via form submit. Yes I know that's a but crude
compared to what an expert would do, but you're not at that stage
yet.
The actual form validation code works fine, and has been doing for ages,
I just want to be able to spare the user the server-round trip before
finding out their submission is invalid. AJAX seems ideal for that. If only!
