This is not so good. The noscript option should direct the user to
http://www.apache.org/dyn/aoo-closer.cgi/openoffice/
(users who disable JavaScript are likely to be able to browse the FTP-like
structure they will see there).
Whatever method is chosen, I think it should be possible to download
AOO without the use of Javascript.
It should also be possible to download OpenOffice in the cases where
JavaScript parsing breaks, i.e., we should have alternative download links
that are always visible (working JavaScript, broken Javascript, no
JavaScript).
I think this is the key insight. There are actually three cases to consider:
1) Java script disabled
2) Javascript is supported, but not working with our page
3) Javascript working fine.
Some of the more recent reports are about #2. These are older
versions of Internet Explorer, e.g., I.E. 6. A<noscript> block will
not help in this case.
But if it is possible to detect the broken Javascript without
crashing, then it would be possible to treat the browser as if it did
not have Javascript.
Right, has anybody an idea how to detect such broken JS engines?
