The validator framework can be used to generate client-side validation JavaScript for Struts forms. However, you should *always* redo the validations at the server side -- it is not safe programming to assume that the user has JavaScript enabled.
The way I look at it, client-side validation is there to improve the user interface by reacting more quickly to user errors. It's not something that the server-side application should rely on.
