What happens if a user doesn't have javascript enabled in their browser for the
recommended Macromedia solution (see link:

whole Active X debacle ?
This is answered at the Adobe Active Content Center:
"What about users who have JavaScript turned off?"
http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/activecontent/articles/devletter.html#nojavascript
(NOSCRIPT was originally for browsers which did not have any JavaScript
interpreter, rather than for a browser whose owner disabled JavaScript,
but what I've been seeing anecdotally the last few versions is that most
browsers have switched over to reading NOSCRIPT when JS is turned off.
It would be great if there were openwiki documentation of browser
differences, however.)
Related question: Do you see reasons why so much of this conversation
about ActiveX changes in the Microsoft browser has avoided the source
material on the Adobe site? Reporters are frequently getting the facts
wrong ("ads won't play" etc), and on the lists there's sort of a
goldrush to be handrolling other solutions. Any ideas I should consider
here? Thanks.
