WCAG 1 is outdated when it comes to scripting (not to mention
self-contradictory). It is our job as standardistas and
accessibilitistas to know how to interpret archaic guidelines in the
context of modern technology. Go ahead and use JavaScript correctly
(a concept still in evolution, but many basic facts are known) and
ignore <noscript> the way you ignore <noframes>.
