> !?! And what about the smart folks that cruise with Java off ?!?!

I strongly suspect there is a far higher percentage of us would-be web
authors who are denied access to CGI bins than the percentage of those
surfing with JavaScript turned off.

Yeah --- And WHAT about those "smart" folks ???

There are exceptions of course, and generally speaking, one shouldn't
generalize, but, "in general", we at least, put the folks who surf with
their JavaScript turned off in exactly the same category as those poor folks
who have NO computers in the first place. Because in a very real
sense--that's exactly where they are. To use the American slang. "They're
out of it!!"

If one is EVER to get ANYTHING done, you have to establish some parameters
knowing full well that a few will slip through the cracks. Looking at this
sort of thing in a different way--Is it really fair to the rest of the
viewers--or yourself--to spend most of the day, dwelling on the few
negatives. Or reducing every site down to the lowest common denominator??

Sure, content is king. It's the meat and potatoes of the web world. But we
must never forget that chocolate too--is one of the MAJOR food groups.

Large smacking of lips ...
