[TurboGears] Re: JavaScript client-side validation

Wed, 30 Aug 2006 16:22:48 -0700

I was thinking about this topic the other day, and it seems to me that TG should have a "default" client-side validation solution.  Like any other part of TG, you could write something similar yourself if you wanted, but this would help a lot of people get their apps runniing quickly "out-of-the-box".  I'm still thinking about what the best way to go about this would be, though.

I don't know offhand of any really good _javascript_ validation tools,
so MochiKit works as well as anything at iterating through fields and
checking values.

One of the blue-sky ideas I've had is to figure out how to use the
_javascript_ pypy backend to convert python validation expressions into
_javascript_. You'd still have to build an engine to run the definitions
client side, but at least test translation could conceivably be
automatic.
