RE: [WSG] AJAX and Clickable Elements

I have a similar issue with www.calcResult.com: everything is done with
JavaScript, but what I do is make all forms link to a page explaining
that the site requires JavaScript, and why. Sometimes I see that page
when a script I am working on fails, but even that is arguably better
than nothing happening at all.

        Why? Can't you have a sensible fallback (e.g. in case the user
middle clicks to open in a new tab).

        Because the data is going to be loaded into an element within
the document dynamically. There would be no option to open it in a new
tab. The loaded data will allow users to click on links that will take
them to the spots on the map.

        The only fallback would be for users who don't have JS enabled,
but without JS enabled the application is useless because it relies on
JS to use the Google Maps API.
