RE: Data validation: Client or Server?

Good stuff, but just think about how it can be manipulated.

 

Filed, for example you mighr be validating Susans hair colur down the road.

Few tweeks with Firebug and I change to input to [user]…… presto now I can see if you have a valid user, password.

 

Sure I have to try over and over but it exposed you validation set on the model.

 

Stay away from live validation as such it sucks!

We always use both if not both server-side

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?
