Hi,

On my Ubuntu 14.04 server, elinks doesn't have Javascript support. As you 
may know, there are several packages, all slightly different. Specifically, 
there are elinks, links and links2. One of those might have Javascript 
support, but I doubt it, at least not on a standard Ubuntu system. I suggest 
having them custom compile from source with the Javascript libraries. You 
can compile your own version for use in your home directory as Tim already 
pointed out.
