forms_no_js is up for grabs
After numerous requests from various people I have written and committed a forms_no_js module. It's up for grabs, if it's really needed I will create a project for it, but I'd be happier if someone would. Or the next guy who complains about forced JS in Drupal 4.7 will automatically get the maintainership :P Regards NK

Derek, After reading it, it occurred to me that my response might have been misunderstood. It was Goba's reply that I found so amusing. I have no idea why I found it amusing, I just did. :^)

How will that be different from it being unmaintained? (No offense to Ber, I just know how much free time Ber has!)

Heh. :) It seems I am "the local ANTI JS guy", let me clarify my position: I am not against JS or AJAX. I love it, really. I love *nice implemented AJAX* (and no, digg.com is NOT well done!). I am a big fan of the (some of the) prototype thingies. Its just that I like stuff done *right* or not at all. In this case I have serious doubts about how right some particular JS was done on some places in Drupal :). * I love the autofill. IMO its the best user-side addition to Drupal. * I love the collapses (allthough they are abused, but that has nothing to do with JS, but with lazy UI designers) * I love the upload progressbars. I see more nice places for the progress bars too. Its fabulous. * I would love to be able to make certain textareas get resizing capabilities. But: * I seriously dislike the fact that resizers are enforced on ALL textareas. It contradicts with the bahaviour of all our other JS. And it adds a lot of overhead to remove it on certain places. Esp because I hardly see a real need for them. If some textareas are too small, our UI needs redesign. This is very different from an "all or nothing JS thing". This is about choosing good defaults. * I dislike the addition of nifty things in critical places. I see update.php as a critical place. critical places should *always work*. And that can IMO only be ensured by making these places as simple as possible. Again: choosing good defaults. To me enhancing the update process like this, is, like putting all pimpy stuff inside your closed server box. You never see them, you never need them, and they are only in the way when your hardisk needs replacement. I hope I made my ideas about our JS a bit clearer this way. -- | Bèr Kessels | webschuur.com | website development | | Jabber & Google Talk: ber@jabber.webschuur.com | http://bler.webschuur.com | http://www.webschuur.com | Hoe het naviatie blok te verbergen: http://help.sympal.nl/hoe_het_naviatie_blok_te_verbergen

I know how you feel. I feel the same. I just like to pick on you. ;)
