Because as a User I prefer client-side validation to save me some trips to the server, if possible. For the 90% of users with it enabled, it can be user-friendly. Of course, you should ALWAYS do server-side . . . . And, for most forms, the client-side validation is pretty quick & easy to do [paricularly if you have a set of standard validation functions you call].
