The respondent has JavaScript disabled, so he's trying to tell you in
a indirect way that your site is missing a "Go to hell, looser"
message which is indeed suggested for any script-driven solution. At
the very bottom of your page (so to not be occasionally used by robots
in the index description) put something like:

<!-- WARNING IF CLIENT-SIDE SCRIPT IS DISABLED -->
<noscript
><div style="position: absolute; z-index: 1; left: 10px; top: 5px;
width: 40%; border: thick double red; padding: 10px
10px;
background-color: yellow; font: bold larger serif;
color: red;"

elements may have
a limited functionality or they may be not parsed properly.</p
><p>If it is not currently possible to you to use JavaScript then
for the best user
experience you may <a href="index_noscript.html">use a simplified
version of this page</a></p
></div
></noscript>
