Re: Detect if JS is Enabled
Is there a way to detect (on the server side) if a client browser has = JavaScript enabled? I don't think you can test this from the server. Your best bet is to do some sort of client side checking, and then use a combination of script and NOSCRIPT tags to deliver the appropriate content to the user. I'm most concerned about Netscape 4.x. When = JavaScript is disabled in Netscape, it does more than disable = JavaScript. It also ignores the positioning of layers and the formating = of cascading style sheets (I do have cascascading style sheets enable in = my preferences). That little bug is a REAL pain. Does it still exist in the newer (~4.8) versions of Navigator?

What I sometimes do is set a cookie using JavaScript and then try to read it with CF.

RE: Detect if JS is Enabled
This will definitely tell you if JS is on. Although they could have JS on and cookies off, thus giving you the wrong results. Basically, not the best check.

A Cookie is seen to both. All you have to do is make sure JS writes the cookie to the correct place, the root domain.
