"Web forms should always use client side validation and server side 
validation together" Ha! It's a pretty well accepted rule, and still wrong. 
Sometimes (certain types of long complex forms) client side validation that 
would be usable would require an enormous amount of DHTML 
(redrawing+reorganising the screen completely) that it's probably better to 
just do a server call and return a nicely formatted error page.
