Client-side Validation Web Services

Over on the The Daily WTF, they have a piece on The Long Road to Validation. I always liked having a little bit of client side validation to complement my server side validation, but this guy decided to call out to a web service, from JavaScript, to validate dates. And gets the results back in a tagged string. I see a future u.s. government enterprise architect in the making! That's a brilliant use of the enterprise date validation service. Service re-use at its finest.

Oh wait- he didn't use SOAP...still needs more brainwashing.
