Well, I wonder if it could be collected in a similar way to browserusage stats. Don't see why not. I would agree it's good practice to check for js being switched on though, just wondered on stats. will -----Original Message----- From: Jason k Larson [mailto:jlarson@candlefire.org] Sent: 29 April 2003 11:05 To: Will Swain Cc: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: Re: [PHP] Re: Submit a form with a link Not certain how or where you might expect that data to be collected, but I certainly *do* expect you to be off in your assumed percentage for disabled javascript browsers. There is a significantly good reason browsers allow it to be turned off, and I'd like to believe that a good many prefer to leave it off. Either way, Daniel is giving good advice. You should perform tests proir to assuming javascript functionality is enabled, and hopefully decide to offer a solution that works without it if need be. Just my two cents. -- Jason k Larson Will Swain wrote: > Anyone know a source of figures for what percentage of users have javascript > disabled?
