how can you develop assuming that scripting is ON?
if 2% of your customers have scripting disabled (just to use your numbers
for a mo'), that's 2% of the people who WON'T be coming back to your site to
buy something. that's like refusing to put in handicapped access ramps,
because hey, only a small portion of the population is disabled, and i don't
care if they can't get into my store.

Subject: Adam, you got to be kidding?
You actually develop with the mindset that a user might not have scripting
enabled? Ouch!
My guess would be that at a minimum, 98% of all users have scripting
enabled.
So, you would forfeit the capability of client-side data validation,
client-side DOM manipulation, etc.?
You would add unneeded round trips to your server to accomplish scripting,
validation, etc.? So 98% of your users will pay the Performance price for
the
2% of your users? Not to mention the extra load on your server and the
wasted
bandwidth.
Not a good idea ... Please!
