The Low Down
novalidate if a form-level attribute used to turn off validation for a form,
despite the attributes of the inputs it contains (i.e. will override inputs with the
required attribute, or that would otherwise fail validation).
-
Forms naturally validate, no special attributes needed. This special attribute is needed
to turn that off.
-
You might use this if you plan to do your own client-side validation or if you plan
to go all server-side validation (which you need to do anyway).
-
Classic example of why server side validation is extra important.
One little change in Firebug can force entire form to not need
validation and bad data can go through.
