The only Javascript functionality we are considering using is to make a 
window pop-up which is roughly the same appearance and dimensions as a 
normal download window.  This is a very basic usage of Javascript which 
has been supported by all browsers for donkeys-years.  If a browser 
doesn't support JS, or if JS has been disabled, then it will work just 
fine, except that the download window will appear in the browser rather 
than in a separate Window.

If you can explain, specifically, why this is bad, then we won't do it.
