    I'm with you. Although I do think that for the mere *displaying* of content no JS should be needed, I no longer cater for non-JS users in more interactive scenarios.

    It simply is not sustainable to do so. I am a big believer in progressive enhancement: reward users with a better experience if they have a better browser. This works both ways. Those purposely chosing for IE6 or disabling JS should expect a worse or even non-functioning experience.

    Catering for the lowest common denominator has gotten us stuck for a decade. It is time to move forward now. If you disable JS you are hindering your own experience. JS is a standard and vital foundation of the web, you cannot expect things to work with it disabled.
