I agree too - I'd like to feed that it into better schemes, which I think is doable given the current APIs, esp. popups floating by existing components. But to me, the really important issues aren't so much how it gets rendered (which can be massaged down the line), but the basic architectural ones, most particularly, how do you attach client-side validation? For that, the only really clean answer is that it should happen implicitly as a result of adding a server-side validation, so that client-side validation is always a strict subset of server-side validation. Any client-side validation scheme that doesn't follow this pattern is a security risk. -- Adam > > How do you tell the users that validation failed?
