in thread Perl vs. Javascript

mod_perl takes care of the server overhead, but the network latency may inconvenience users, especially those with poor connectivity to your server.

The main advantage of client side validation is that it gives users an immediate warning that they need to correct their input, without having to wait for the server to respond to their request.

    I understand what you mean. But then you have to do double work. Program in javascript and then do it server-side again.
    Why this? Cos taint checking is only secure server-side.
    If you want to do everything double ok for me.
