| | 163 | It is nicer for both users & server load if they get told of data entry problems (such as not filling-in mandatory fields) before they submit the form and get the server-side validation results. |

| | 165 | We make a little use of jQuery.validate already - currently just for the registration page. It would be good to extend this and provide a nice consistent API to report errors, which should work on both Bootstrap & other Themes. The existing 'required' flag should be picked-up & validated automatically. |
