It is a well known performance issue to minimise the traffic between browser <-> internet <-> application <-> DBMS. I am not sure what else I can say to explain it. The need to clean the data in SQL was because the original user interface did not do it. If I take your advice then either I repeat that mistake, making the project pointless, or I complete transactions to load invalid data to the database before returning an error to the browser to get the user to fix it. Your belief that anything can be done in SQL, surely cannot reasonably extend to pre-empting data entry mistakes? It certainly appears that way.
