javascript checking is not very secure and specially file-extension checking. You can do some sort of javascript check to do a client side validation, but the cffile check is a little more thorough as it checks the file if it is the correct mime-type, even if you rename the extension if I'm not wrong.
You should do some basic error handling if the mime-type check throws an coldfusion error and you should be golden.
