Hi Matt, thank you very much! Your JS library looks very interesting
and I certainly will play with it. I see that the radio group has not
been implemented, is this something coming out soon?
The web form has radio buttons with multi-selection options.
Cheers,
tee

Hi Tee,
What John is saying is that AJAX is JavaScript yes, but it can also
make calls to the server (using the XMLHttpRequest object) thus it
validates using server-side technologies such as PHP. But what is
misleading is that validation using AJAX can be disabled quite
easily simply by disabling JavaScript rendering a nice big security
hole. That is where the true server-side validation must double-check.
If you are interested, I wrote a small JS library that may be of use
to you. It is a plug'n'play like JS file to automagically validate
basic forms which is totally unobtrusive and promotes separation of
concerns. To add extra fancy AJAX stuff is a matter of overriding a
class and implementing your specific needs. I've still got a bit of
work to do on it, but you can certainly get an idea.

I'd be happy to help you if you need, just shoot us through an email.
