Phew :)
I’ve finished the work I was doing for Stephen on Uncover Egypt, so my extra-curricular development efforts are full-time on my project now.
First task: I want a slick little enquiry form with client-side validation using jQuery (no nasty validation pop-ups for me, nosir) and some nice server-side validation in PHP to catch the little tricksters that sidestep the first line of defence.
Marvellous.

Hmm, nice, a Jscript library. The demos are a bit limited though, just show DHTML rather than the fancy shennanigins of the library.
Nice tool if you don’t want to spend a lot of time re-inventing the wheel.

I’ll probably do the actual validation in vanilla JavaScript, and use jQuery for pretty fadey “Enter your name, dumbass!” messages.
I probably won’t phrase them quite like that, though…

Mr T says : “You got a validation error, sucka! I pity the fool who done enter an end date before the start date”

It’s not quite done yet, but it’s coming along very nicely
Mmmm fadey messages…
That jQuery is pretty nice - at the moment I prefer it to Prototype. If only because the people that are behind jQuery have bothered their collective arse to create a decent body of documentation for it (broken links notwithstanding). I’ve neither the time nor the inclination to poke through the Prototype source until I figure it out.
