What does everyone prefer?
Both. Always PHP, optionally with JS to cut down on pointless HTTP
requests.
Never ever trust anything coming from the client, even if you have JS
checking it first. The client may not have JS support either due to
the user turning it off or just because it doesn't. Your control over
the data starts when your server-side script is executed, not before.
