I had almost forgotten about the Alistapart article! By the way, yes you are correct, Mario! Most sites do die when JS is disabled. And I'll bet those are the same sites that get absolutely 0 business from the small few who have chosen to disable it. Sure, it takes extra effort to prepare for a JS-disabled user, but it's the right thing to do, makes your site work in pretty much any situation (even on tiny cellphones), often makes it easier to manage your site in the future, and occasionally, but perhaps most importantly, gets you the sale from that lonely JS-disabled user. Just my two cents. :-) I know this post is very old, but I’m just diving into a page that needs shipping info with a map. I had almost forgotten about the Alistapart article!

Its on by Default and most regular users dont know how to change that. If they turn JS off almost all sites are dead. I say if they dont have js they dont get the goodies.
