Quick question, does anybody ever go around with JavaScript in their web browser completely disabled? I'm guessing it's not off right now as otherwise you might have trouble using many of this websites systems, or indeed a significant part of the wider Internet where JS/AJAX is popular. Note: I am not talking about Java applets, which require you to download the separate runtime library (IMO always best avoided).
I just ask because in order to protect some aspects of the site from spam robots we need to add a few extra JS tricks but to be effective we can't have a noscript fall-back. So the issue becomes, how many might be affected (e.g. being unable to comment on a news item if you've disabled JavaScript etc.)?
