Good: gives user immediate feedback without the overhead of a server request. Waste of time: Only works if JS is on. Not airtight, and may cause problems for browsers that don't do JS. With those facts in mind, determine what makes sense for your app. I rarely use client-side validation, but I could imagine places where it's helpful. The one you can't forget is DB-level validation. The app is not sufficient to keep bad data out of the DB.
