Test for Javascript support

J

Jeremy

Please can someone tell me where I can find the html code that will check
whether peoples' browsers support javascript, and if the browser doesn't
support it direct them to an alternate URL.

Many thanks!

<noscript>Your browser does not support javascript and so you will not be
able to use this website. Please <a href="alternate.html">click here to be
redirected to the non-javascript site</a></noscript>

If I put into my head:
<noscript>
<a LinkToMyNonJavascriptSite >
</noscript>

Will that take them automatically to the new site? No user intervention
required?

Many thanks for your help!

No. You need to provide a link.

the browsers *support* javascript, it is the users choice to turn it on or off.
there is a line of code like

<noscript>
<p> This browser has Javascript turned off or does not support it</p>
</noscript>
that you put in the head section, but I don't know if what I have written above
is completely correct, syntax-wise.
