<DIV><SPAN class=612530415-10022006><FONT face=Verdana color=#808080 size=2>Depends what your back end is... in .net they have validate controls that
cover it. I see what you are saying I guess I was looking at it from a
performance not a development effort angle. I usually write both for java
apps but this thread sparked the idea to not run both. Right now I
validate client and server side; 99.9999999% of the time if there is an issue it
is stopped at the client side so the server side validates once it gets there
but it would be nice to know if I even have to run it. At least with javascript, if written in a good coding format it can be copied into the java
app and only takes some tweaks to get it valid. C# is another story but
there like I said you can use a validate control of some sort. I don't
mess with PHP, ASP, Ruby, Python... there is just to much to learn in java and
.Net and those are more likely utilized in corp. America from an employment standpoint. Plus being a java architect pays more then a php architect...
;-) Not that I am knocking php; it is fast I will give it that... but so
is a C++ CGI.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN><FONT face=Verdana color=#808080 size=2>Here's a question (that I
don't know the answer to) would it be prudent to check to see if javascript
and cookies are turned on in the beginning render of a page, if so use an
AJAX-ish method to communicate with the server and say... we are all set no
need to do server side checks or... do them if javascript is off? Just
an idea.</FONT></SPAN></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE>
<DIV><BR><BR>Interesting idea. The only problem with that, unless I'm
misunderstanding, is that you have to now write *both* versions of the code,
defeating the purpose.
