[users@httpd] Detecting Javascript via Apache 2
Hi all.
Is it possible for apache 2.0 to detect if a browser has
javascript enabled when a page is requested, and then
passing this value to PHP?
This would allow me to serve different page content,
depending on whether the user's browser has javascript
enabled or not.
Regard

You probably want to assume it doesn't then if it does set a cookie or
establish it via link
or by using javascript to tell php it does and save it in the session.

It is not relevant if a page has or not Javascript enabled.
If you want to create pages that work in every browser, read and follow
World Wide Web's recommendations at www.w3c.org.
What does it mean if Javascript is enabled? It means that the browser has it
enabled, but you won't know if the user is able to use it.
Maybe the computer she uses doesn't have a mouse or the user is blind and
should use only the keyboard, so the first important thing is to create the
page that follow W3C's rules.
If you want to see if the browser has Javascript enabled, you can create a
Javascript code that GET's a page from the web server. If the page is
gotten, then the browser supports Javascript and if it is not, it means that
the code was not working so it might be disabled.

Nope. There are many pages on how to deal with the issue using javascript.
I suggest looking here:
http://www.w3schools.com/js/default.asp
And more specifically here:
http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_howto.asp
http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_browser.asp
Hope that helps a bit.
