A question: how would you do validation if you were not using QuickForm?..
The old fashined way of validating each var from $_POST and reporting a message back, but that seemed unnecessary seeing as QuickForm has built in validation.
You didn't answer the whole question. In which file will you do this validation?
A bit like buying a Dishwasher, and then cleaning the dishes by hand ;-)
Would you complain about the dishwasher not doing your dishes if you never put them into it?
Is this a recognised problem? Any tips on an elegant solution of getting server side validation to work.
