Prompt Active Scripting disabled message

[mukeshrasm]

Hi

I have developed website using php and mysql and in that I have used JavaScript as well. I tried to run this website on different computer and set its browser's Active Scripting disabled. so javascript is not working on that system. Now what i wanted that if user's javascript/active scripting is disbaled then it should prompt user to enable it or it enable automatically. How can i do this?

you can’t enable it automatically, but you can leave a note either using <noscript> or any element that you remove via javascript.

How mean what will be the exact code to do it

[Dormilich]

How mean

indeed, if I want JavaScript off, no-one but me is allowed to turn it back on.

LOL, I don't think that was what he meant!

mukeshrasm, have you tried looking at the use of the noscript tag?

Hi Yes I am looking the use of noscript tag and how can I prompt user to enable Active Scripting if it is disabled

[Dormilich]

how can I prompt user to enable Active Scripting if it is disabled

see post #2.

prompt() is a JavaScript method, i.e. it only works with JavaScript enabled.

If by prompt, you simply mean a message to be displayed, the <noscript> tag is perfect for that task:

<noscript>You can browse this site without having JavaScript enabled, but to experience the full benefits of the site, please enable JavaScript.</noscript>

for the standardista among us:
<noscript> requires to have only block level elements as content (children)

<noscript>
    <p>your message</p>
</noscript>

Thanks, I was going to put the <p> tag in, but forgot.

the browser wouldn’t have cared anyway, until you ask it to use the XHTML parser.
