Re: Can I use Java instead of JavaScript for Client side validati ons ?

[Matthew Gering (Cotelligent)]

You can do the latter with javascript as well, provided the browser's object
model supports it. There's really very little that you cannot do with
javascript (ECMA-262) and DOM these days regarding client-side validation
and interactivity. Javascript's loose typing makes data type validation
annoying though.

Sorry for being off-topic.
