You can do the latter with javascript as well, provided the browser's object model supports it. There's really very little that you cannot do with javascript (ECMA-262) and DOM these days regarding client-side validation and interactivity. Javascript's loose typing makes data type validation annoying though. Sorry for being off-topic.
