Jquery validation over server side validation

Question

Hi I have quite extensively used server side validation(SSV) but realised it is not a good approach when a page has too many controls and decided to go ahead with jquery. Does jquery provide all the flexibility as SSV in terms of validation group, error message etc?

Expert advises are most welcome.

Thank you in advance.

you are right better to go for client side validation. jquery provide all most all type of validation what you did in server side. but there is some validation like database value matching you will face difficulty in jquery. but you can easily do it in ssv . so try to validate in client side using jquery or javascript if you face any problem then go for ssv. if any high security issue is their then go for ssv.

JQuery has good set APIs for client side validations. It can fit into ASP.net web forms + ASP.net MVC technologies also. Always do client side validation before sending the data to server side.
