It seems you are not entirely informed. PHP can be completely transparant. Wether or not valid HTML/XHTML/.... is generated is the programmers responsibility. But javascript is not an option for anyone using any of the following browsers: - Lynx - w3m - links Beyond that I see no point in adding javascript when all issues can be handled very well without them. We want to be accessible to all. While a text browser works for blind using a brialle ruler, using frames and/or javascript makes it completely inaccessable to them.
