web-browser

Hello,

I'm learning JQuery and am about to write some pages using intensively that library. I just learned that some user disable javascript on their browser (I didn't even know that was possible and/or necessary).

Now, here's my question: What happens to my web application if a user disable Javascript? For instance, I'd like to display some screens using Ajax and commands such as 'InsertBefore' to bring in live a DIV that will display the result.

So, if Javascript is disabled, I wonder what going to happen to all this work that relies on Javascript?

I'm kind of lost.

Thanks for helping
