Server-side is good for
- keeping your super-duper proprietary
source code secret
- interfacing to other stuff on the server,
ie databases, mail or news servers, etc
- dynamically updating your site - adding "today's
headlines" etc.
- separating code from format (ie templates) -
makes maintenance and updating easier.
Server-side is bad for
- increasing the load on your server
- introducing security holes (when
poorly written).
Client-side is good for
- making individual pages dynamic -
image rollovers, form checking, etc
Client-side is bad for
- major incompatibilities between browser
object models makes cross-browser
coding difficult.
- your source code is open to the public
