You're right there. A really nice project would be to add client-side form validation code generation to Django's newforms, so I could do something like:

$(document).ready(function() {
    $("#myform").submit(function(form) {
        {% validate_form form myproject.myapp.forms.FooForm %}
    });
});

You’re right about the container, sorry.

You shouldn’t load the server for testing a form anyway, reactivity is important so use Ajax carefully

That’s up to the client side developer I guess, I must admit I’m not that good at JavaScript/DOM coding.

Clicking many times is not an issue as the existing container is re-used if it already exists.

The BR is there to make things look good, I don’t now whether there’s better markup…

Thanks for the constructive comment

I’m wondering what is happening when you are clicking many times.

$(“.error”).fadeOut(“slow”);

This is a bit “light”, you should remove them from the DOM after fading them out. And please remove the br you are using or put it the error class name too.

By the way, it’s a nice and useful idea.

Cheers,
