Always validate data server-side. User disables js then what?
Best bet is to always

Subject: Re: Data validation: Client or Server?
I still view jQuery as progressive enhancement. Even if it is mostly on it can still be turned off, which would - if you relied only on client side code - skip your validation. You also never know how your site will be accessed; what if (remote, I know) you wanted to open it up as a web service or API? Then you'd need to load up your validation anyone. Just my 2c.

I wanted to get some opinions on this. Cake's validation structure is easy to apply and works flawlessly (so far, wink,wink). But I've also written some data validation with jQuery which is activated at the client side.
Is there still a need to validate at the server if most browsers support javascript? Do some of you leave off the server side validation in lieu of client side? How's that HTML5 data validation working for you?
