Just to satisfy my devil's advocacy, could you provide examples of these
so-called "good reasons"? I have yet to see a truly viable "good reason"
for turning off Javascript. Most reasons to date involve 1) confusion
with Java, 2) some supposed security risk (often ActiveX controls
mistaken for JS), 3) "somebody told me..." nonsense, or 4) stopping
popups. The only one of these with any real merit was 4, but even that
is antiquated given the specialized popup blockers in modern browsers.
