I have tried to use Confluence, yes. Not all that successfully, however.

I had never tried that particular feature of Google, but I'm not particularly impressed by it. And if the choice is to send a whole bunch of stuff to the other end and then hide most of it or to simply not send it at all, I vote for not sending it. If you read the Slashdot article that I referenced in another message, I believe you'll find that it's the Google people who are saying that the bottleneck in most cases is not the network, but is actually the amazingly low-end Pentium machines that people have at home, and that we (they) have to work hard to avoid overtaxing those systems. > So you have no constructive feedback, nor a sufficiently detailed > critique that I can even address your concerns.

It's not just making sure that the page will work without JavaScript. It's also making sure that the JavaScript which is added is relatively simple and unlikely to break when viewed/used in unexpected or unknown browsers, and will be likely to continue to work in all future browsers and browser versions. It's also not pushing things too far, because I might end up browsing a Mailman admin site with my Treo 650 with JavaScript turned on, across a slow spotty GPRS connection, and I still need this 320x320 screen to be useful when trying to do some emergency list maintenance away from home. > * IE 5+, Mozilla (any), Safari from 1.0+ and any other KHTML browsers, > JAWS 6+, Opera 6+, Lynx, Links.
