Don't even bother with the javascript.

Anyone wanting to find exploits is going to have javascript either completely killed, or just block whatever protection you put in it.

 

And on top of that, you will only piss off legitimate users, maybe forcing them to just give up entirely and not try to use the form ever again.

 

Just let PHP remove any bad data. No problems then. :)
