Javascript - Compliance Issue

Hello,





I'm trying to find an answer for the question: "Some
part of the website is non-functional when JavaScript is disabled. Is this
acceptable?"


 


I read WebAim article and few more interesting thoughts
about this topic over the web, but could not find a straight answer as yes or
no. All the discussions were more of a debate. I understand that the topic is
debatable and really it depends on how we perceive it (am I wrong?). But still,
can anyone tell, if some part of site is non-functional when JavaScript is
disabled will make a compliance issue as per WCAG 2.0? Provided, we've tried
our best not use JavaScript wherever possible.


 


Regards,


Aj
