[jQuery] unobtrus

Hi Mark,
It seems that in this very 'controlled' situation, you shouldn't have to be too concerned with it. They aren't web based so you don't have to cater to every situation. You set the bar for the requirements of your portal, so it's more like software. You have to have XYZ to run it, period.

All,
Okay, I am confused by the responses and maybe it's my own fault for asking the question the way that I did. We are on board with the idea of keeping the presentation and behavior separate for both flexibility and maintainability of the application. In fact all of our client applications for both Windows and the Web are design this way to facilitate their maintenance and enhancement. We have an extensive component "plug-in" library that makes our development of very powerful business applications a snap. This is one of the reasons that we were drawn to JQuery when we discovered it. What my question should have been relates to the issue of graceful degradation of the Web application. Is it important for us to be concerned with our Web portal applications degrading gracefully if the user has scripting disabled in their browser?

It's easy to lump 'crap html' with 'requiring javascript'... both are
undesirable! Whereas the former has no merit, the latter is sometimes
required for the presentation of beautiful sites!
John's description of 'crap html' shows just how bad the nightmare can be!
So let's all end the nightmare,with jQuery & css to the rescue!
