ghost noscript tag more info here
I am facing exactly this issue, how shall I handle this for Internet Explorer browsers :-( ?

Explanation:
I have included the following noscript tag in my application's layout

<noscript style="background:#ffcc00;font-size:200%;font-family:verdana;text-align:center;text-transform:uppercase;font-weight:bold;padding:0.8em;">javascript is disabled, please enable it first.</noscript>

Now when I view this layout in IE8 the noscript tag CSS is displaying at the top of the page without the content in it, making the layout look faulty.

Please help...
