Summary:

Article looking at validation with both client and server

Description:

With the arrival of ASP.NET came the introduction of validation controls, one of the greatest timesaving features included with it. Such controls allow for data entered by the user to be validated both at the client and then at the server, providing a robust mechanism with standardized feedback, with no need for the developer to implement complicated validation routines for each input form. This article by JS Greenwood looks at how such validation controls, with their distinctive asp:validatorType format can be implemented in classic ASP performing validation at both the client and server thus allowing for a feature rich system that is compatible with ASP.NET and also helping ease the migration of applications. In the first part, the nature of validators is looked at, and a client-side implementation is developed. In the second part, a server-side implementation of the validators is developed, and the shortcoming of the client-side is redressed.
