I'm of the following schools of thought:

- If anything is being done server-side, server-side validation is inevitable (and therefore Javascript validation is not crucial).
- With Javascript, less is more.

I suppose the second could be used if the purpose of the form is such that Javascript has to be on anyway. It still doesn't seem like an ideal structure.
