Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words:

Discuss what happens if your site visitors are running browsers that lack HTML5 support for those input types. On the other hand, if you use JavaScript^® to validate input data, what happens if your site visitors have JavaScript^® turned off in their browsers?

Choose one of the following three positions for validating form input effectively, and defend it based on what you have read or watched in this class so far:

• Web programmers should always use HTML5 form validation, because...
• Web programmers should always use JavaScript^® form validation, because...
• When it comes to form validation, web programmers should always..., because...

Answer 1

Form Validation:

• When it comes to forming validation, web programmers must always make use of both the HTML5 as well as the Javascript form validation. This will help the website sustain the functionality in the hardest times and there will be fewer chances of getting any user for whom validation does not work.
• It is also recommended so that there is double surety on the implementation of the validation also the developer must be satisfied with the implementation. It will help to resolve the errors on the server-side scripting if the client-side scripting is being performed well.
• As we all know that the forms are being filled up by users and we cannot expect anything from the users and the implementation of any website or web app starts with the thinking that user is too dumb to understand and hence, we have to make them understand the interface for which such implementations are required.
• There must be also the implementation of custom messages to the errors so that the users find it very easy to get familiar with the platform and can deliberately fill-up the form without having any difficulties. Validation helps in resolving the error to the scripts written in the server-side technology.

Hence, these are the reasons why I completely support the web programmers to add up HTML5 as well as the Javascript form validation.
