You still need server-side validation, otherwise, a rogue user can set up a 
form which will allow invalid entries (or he can simply disable Javascript).

Hi Walter,
There's a good tutorial on how to design forms at:
http://www.zope.org/Members/jules/smarterforms_html

I like to let javascript handle the validation, it lightens the load a
little on the server.  I use Regular Expressions to check the validity of
each field.  There's a tutorial at:
http://www.netpedia.com/features/javascript/objects2/

There was also a recent flurry of postings on this subject.  You can search
for them at:

Hope that helps,

Eric.

Subject: [Zope] Rookie Question - Syntax


Hi folks!

I am a Zope/Python-Rookie and Ihave a probably quite simple
problem:

I must check if some must-fields from a form were filled out by a user.
Checking data from a single field is no problem, but what's the correct
syntax for checking more than one field (e.g. "name", "address", "email") ?

Thanx
Walter

I probably could answer your question as stated, but I'm too lazy.
Instead, I will say that you should do such a thing from JavaScript
instead. This is a discussion for elsewhere, and I'd be happy to take
the discussion off-line...
