Hi,

Should we still keep JavaScriptEnabled in soon 2025, and if so why?

TIA

Please forget this inappropriate question

Hi,

My question was not well expressed, if not cryptic.
Here is hopefully a better formulated question with a bit of explanation.

We are in 2025 and obviously JavaScript is everywhere.

JavaScriptEnabled is an old concept of the pre Apache era, it has more than 20 
years!
Without it a lot of features, like form fields autocompleting, are unavailable.

I propose to not change any code but to set JavaScriptEnabled to true when the 
user is signing in.
Note that this is already automatically done when you put JavaScriptEnabled=Y 
in the login URL
as in /control/login?USERNAME=admin&PASSWORD=ofbiz&JavaScriptEnabled=Y
Unfortunately, that's not an obvious feature and may depreciate OFBiz value 
when evaluated without it.

There are few cases, in plugins and themes, where JavaScript is not wanted, 
hence JavaScriptEnabled sets to false,
(look for <<"JavaScriptEnabled" value="N">>).
That's not a problem, because it's only in forms and does not change the 
initial session value of JavaScriptEnabled.

So my question is do we need a vote to apply this change?

TIA for your participation

Jacques
