Client-side text field validation with Javascript
I will admit that I am not a huge fan of client-side scripting (for the exception of HTML, of course) because of its relatively low power and compatibility between browsers. Javascript, however, is as powerful as any client-side language comes, and text field validation is a tremendously desired capability many webmasters want for their forms, and without server-side languages (or at least knowledge of them), Javascript is relied upon very heavily.
