Hi Todino
Welcome to the list.
Yes, it is far better to do validation on the server side because, with
JS turned off, you don't get any form validation.
Regarding the button to do the job, an input type=submit or input
type=image will do the job for you.
Remember:

Ideal situation is to have an onload in the form
tag, to allow for quick checking of the form without
