tks Murray.
I tried putting it in the head and also in other parts of the body (I know
what UR thinking but don't go there: ). Just one thing- It worked no matter
where I put it, so I might just leave it in the head - will that be an
acceptable place for it?
cheers,
Lossed.

THE <NOSCRIPT> TAG
===================
This HTML4 tag is only used when the rendering browser has javascript
disabled, or does not support javascript, in which case the code between
noscript> and </noscript> will be rendered on the page. It is supported
by all modern, and even some quite elderly browsers. A common use for it
would be to do something like this -

noscript><blink>Please turn javascript ON</blink></noscript

Most of the mainstream pop-up blockers don't block windows opened from

I was thinking show/hide layers or PVII's swap class bu they also rely

JS.

There are ways of dealing with non-js browsers for opening windows. See
http://apptools/com/rants/popups.php. If you're using a show/hide layer,
either default the layer to visible and hide it onLoad, or include a
noscript> alternative.

No. Put it in the body.

Actually, I tried styling the noscript tag with CSS but it would only work
it if was NOT in the head, but after the body tag. Incidentally, when in the
head, it seemed to inherit whatever I had set for the body tag styling, or
that could have been the html styling as i set both of them to the same
styles in my CSS.

Any reasons why I should not do a find and replace - finding <body> and
replacing with <body><noscript>blah blah</noscript>?
then I would just need to pick off the remaining pages that have any onloads
in the body tag and copy and paste.

Right?

Why not find </body> and replace with <noscript>Blah</noscript></body>? You
could even put the "Blah" into a positoned element if you wanted....

great idea, tks. I want the script to show at the top of the page so yeah
will style it and do the one global find and replace and add the one style
to the global CSS.
That's allot faster than flicking through all the pages and pasting it in
just below the opening body tag :-)
Your help is very much appreciated, tks.


I'll just have to remember to add it on new pages directly under the body
tag b/c

How so Gary? Unreliable b/c using JS?

I was specifically talking about restricting the ability of the
user to
re-size the window, but yes, now that you mention it, relying on
JavaScript is leaving it open to the possibility of failure.


I was also wondering with all the pop-up blockers
around, if any will block a pop-up even if it's onclick and from
the
originating website?

Most of the mainstream pop-up blockers don't block windows opened
from
an onClick event. However, I understand that there ARE some less
well
known blockers that block them all.


what's a good way to display snippets of related info when someone
clicks a
text link on a body of text that doesn't rely on javascript and
doesn't take
them, visually at least, completely off the originating page?

I was thinking show/hide layers or PVII's swap class bu they also
rely on
JS.

There are ways of dealing with non-js browsers for opening windows.
See
http://apptools/com/rants/popups.php. If you're using a show/hide
layer,
either default the layer to visible and hide it onLoad, or include
a
noscript> alternative.


Gary

Putting the <noscript> content in the <head> of the document could have
all sorts of evil repercussions. The <noscript> is rendered by the
browser. Putting it in the <head> of the document would be like putting
a heading, or a paragraph in the <head>. When the browser sees it, it
implies that the <head> content is finished and that you have omitted
the <body> tag. See where that could lead?
