When we begin to focus on specific target audiences, then priorities shift, and they should. Many of you on this list, if not most, probably work for corporations as employees, or perhaps as independent developers whose skills are sufficient to get contracts with government agencies, etc. I'm one of those independent developers whose clients general know very little about the Internet and whose list of requirements for their website amounts to "Build me a website"... :o) Rick -----Original Message----- From: Jochem van Dieten [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 17, 2007 4:12 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Client-side validation or Server-side Validation?

Neither have I on any network I ever managed. But on the 3 departments of the national government where I work occasionally and that are managed by an IT department advanced javascript will not work. Neither does it on the networks of companies like the seven sisters. But maybe we just work for a different type of clients. > The "Web 2.0" functionality is going to force the issue.

Just disable javascript and try to use GMail. Some of the productivity features may not work, but you can still read your email without a problem.
