I am alarmed these few days about the use of javascript in my applications. Terribly, I am begining to realize that users can no longer use my applications without javascript at all.

I there a way to detect if the client's browser doesn't support javascript or disabled it in purpose.

What's wrong with using <noscript> the way it's intended?

That should always be your way to graceful fallback.

Side note: If the browser sends it's type and version you can read it from PHP on the server using $_SERVER['USER_AGENT'] and hence work out if JS *should* be available.
