No reason you can't do both, and gracefully degrade. Although unless  
their was a clear dollar advantage to doing both, I'd not do it - it's  
premature optimization, edge case functionality, and it's going to  
adversely affect user experience for EVERYONE due to the increased  
server-side load of using a non client-side solution.

Remember, a disabled user doesn't mean a disabled browser. I think  
you've over analysed, and have the two confused.

I think you'll find the percentage of users without JS is incredibly  
small - although I guess this depends on your target demographic. For  
a site like perl.org I expect it will be much higher, as the  
demographic is likely to use text based browsers etc.

Besides, if you're talking about screen readers, you've got more  
problems than just javascript - this is TABULAR data you're talking  
about ;)

If your concern truly is for disabled users, don't present the data in  
a table.

Sometimes the simplest solutions are the best :)
