Re: Re[2]: [WSG] accessible client side form validation
Sorry for the delayed response; been extra busy of late. I've found the JQuery validation plug-in to be wonderful and easy to use: http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/Validation. Be sure to read through the documentation first and this article is a good source for it as well: http://bassistance.de/2007/07/04/about-client-side-form-validation-and-frameworks/ .
