How do I know Javascript is enable?

Peter Chatterton · May 21, 2004

I'm having problems accessing a site that is supposed to be okay.
The most likely possibility is that it has a lot of Javascript.

How do I know if my browser is enabled for JS?

I'm using win2K SP 4 with IE 6.

Thanks for your help,
Peter.

Create a file with this:
<html>
<script type="text/javascript">
alert("JS Message");
</script>
</html>

If you see the pop-up, JS is enabled.

When you care to read the article yourself, you will notice that this method
detects whether Java is enabled, not JavaScript.

Thanks a lot folks.

The html file worked and I do have JS.

The link:
http://www.physci.org/jvmclean.jsp?pt=js
gave me:

downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later.

It sure looks like a JS problem to me, but maybe I'm getting at the site
the wrong way -- from google.
