right and that's why mozilla advertised the noscript extension along
with dr web recently. PHP with suhosin and cgis but especially CSS
3 and html5 are quite capable these days.

In fact I believe js free may be growing momentum. I certainly see more
high profile sites these days that are very functional and yet can
be javascript free such as tesco.com for accessibility reasons, bank
sites, gov.uk. Amazon My own sites!

I'll grant you that ebay and paypal are going backwards and paypal has
had security issues recently too, coincidence or a sign of struggling
technically?!
