How do I work around Javascript disabled users?

[pj00]

A coworker of mine told me that I need to make a workaround for people who have Javascript disabled in their browsers.

This sounds like a pain, do I have to do it? I felt it wasnt a big enough issue but he is making a major deal out of it and time is pushing close to launch... any input on this?

Thanks!

Parveen,

Without knowing what the JavaScript you're using does, it's difficult to say whether a work-around is justified for those with scripting disabled.

Generally speaking, though, you can enclose content to be displayed by non-scripting (or scripting-disabled) browsers in <NOSCRIPT> tags:

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">code/font><HR><pre>&lt;NOSCRIPT&gt;
&lt;P&gt;This will only be visible to browsers without scripting capabilities, or with scripting disabled.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;/NOSCRIPT&gt;[/code]
