As described in this lesson, ColdFusion offers several alternatives to validating data. If you are familiar with standard page validation code, ColdFusion supports these development approaches. However, ColdFusion form tags simplify data validation. Additionally, you can use JavaScript with ColdFusion to execute client-side functions.
Now that you are sure that your application can save valid data, in the next lesson, you will write code to add trips to the database. Additionally, you will add logic to update existing trip data in the Trips table.
