I am building a small web application that interfaces with RACF.

On the client side I only have the IBM default supplied classes.

I want validate as much as possible on the client before sending it to the

Never do validation on the client side. Someone might decide to write their own client, or something else silly, just to get by restrictions. It's especially important not to trust client-side *security* validation.


That depends on what you're validating. If it's just syntax for a class name then validating on the client is surely better than pinging it off to a server.
