Just wondering since I'm about to start on my version of the at member image gallery and do people object if I use a bit of javascript

I think it is just fine and dandy. Just make sure to put the time and effort to write cross-platform Javascript.

I have opera, ie and mozilla installed for that

what about javascript scrollers instead of the basic scrollers that are used?

Because if you do have IE, you're already screwed.

Honestly I don't know anybody who bothers with non-ie anymore, because it's a waste of time putting effort into something a small fraction of people will use.

Like any of these other newfangled things (Flash, DHTML, etc.), Javascript in limited amounts is fine on a website. Just make sure it's coded properly and doesn't crash anything.

As mentioned before, as long as it is cross-platform compatible. You may also want to include a way for people who have JS disabled to view the pages as well.

thats the only thing I'm worried about, I dont realy want to code things so they work with and without javascript, just want to either code with it or without it.

Just be sure to use the <noscript> tags and have it build it statically. Or have it redirect to a static page.

Beau6183,
I might do that, but for the hell of it I'll just start to create it using javascript and if people complain I'll just rip the javascript out, easy to do



The 3 people who said no, would you please explain why?

Any browser worth using uses all the javascript you're likely to use unless you go overboard just for fun! Don't worry

As long as it is done right it is fine.

use a bit of javascript

That is the key, a "bit" of Javascript is great. I hate when pages use 1500 lines of the stuff.
