[Bug 912028] Re: Use HTML5 client-side validation in pieforms

 

It looks like some of the HTML5 form validation features could work
side-by-side with our existing Javascript validation, as a kind of
augmentation. Like the "required" attribute, for instance. http://www
.the-art-of-web.com/html/html5-form-validation/

But it's probably not worth putting much effort into this just yet,
since the JS does an adequate job.

** Summary changed:

- Use HTML5 client-side validation in pieforms
+ Add HTML5 client-side validation to pieforms

  client-side form validation:

    http://www.marcozehe.de/2011/12/05/from-wai-aria-to-html5-and-back-
  or-maybe-not/

  We should add that to pieforms so that all of our forms get it.
