Are you trying to tell Rudi Ahlers is possible to call php scripts from a
browse event ? The statement "form.submit()" belongs to JavaScript not to
php.
Can you imagine how boring is have to submit forms and reload pages every
time the user make changes on a drop down menu?
I know you're right about disable JavaScript on the browser but I think
security matters are more applicable to MS Active X which even writes to
your HD, as far as I know JavaScript is not allowed to do that.
Of course you can't make password validation client side, there is no data
security client side.
I think academic and radical positions aren't good at all. You should deal
with the real world where you have the give the user as much comfort as you
can. Applications don't have proper life, they are created for been used, so
the user is always the king.
