hi Nadia,
What if the client who is accessing ur application disables the
java script and keeps on hitting the server contineous ?
Secondly, Using javascript its little difficult to modify the html
pages. But using validate method and <html:errors/> u can lay out ur error
messages properly.
At this moment I only see these two advantages of validate method.

Subject: Validate() vs JavaScript where is the advantage?
Hi,
I'm wondering if I should use validate() method of ActionForm instead of
JavaScript to validate the form. I can see the advantage of validate() when
you have an internationalized application, but otherwise why would I have an
overhead of going back to the server when I can do the validation on the
client side? I'm a struts newbie so I might not see the advantage of
validate yet, so can someone tell me why JavaScript would be an inferior
choice ( when internationalization is not an issue ).
Thanks
NK
