I dont think it is good to validate through javascript unless it is a very simple thing and not really data saving related.
In DHIS2, we have this clientside validation without any server validation. The STQC guys have found only few, but as a pattern we lack that in our design. Im sure the security testing guys are going 2 find more bugs with validation. So i suggest unless its a UI thing we should avoid javascript validation.
