RE: NOSCRIPT question

I can give you an example of NOSCRIPT use that i recommended to a client
yesterday.

The clients page has a javascript based "glossary" function: when a user
activates a Javascript link on certain words, content is written to the
page with the definition of the word. because the content is written to
the page via javascript it is not available when Javascript is disabled
or not supported. In this case I recommended that a NOSCRIPT element be
included containing the word definitions, so that the information is
available regardless of javascript support.

with regards
