Ah. .So you were actually saying "you can define a single set of validation criteria _could be_ used to generate whatever validation is performed both client side and server side" Obviously, Cocoon only generates the server side validation code at present - but it seems to me there is no reason why one cannot write a generic "forms validation Javascript" code generator to be distributed as part of future Cocoon releases... this would save a *lot* of rework for those wishing to do client side *and* server side validation [each has its place, after all].
