Your site doesn't work with javascript disabled.

It does, but it's not ideal. Remember, it's important to separate noloh.com, from NOLOH the tool's capabilities. The decisions we made regarding noloh.com, in no way reflects the capabilities of NOLOH. In a NOLOH application or website, you decide to what extent your content will display without JavaScript, granted we should enable more options, but without JavaScript the site and content still loads and those users can still peruse your content, but not perfectly. However, if you pretend to be a search engine, you'll see they get a completely different version of the website, with generated links, different than the JavaScript disabled version.

It boils down to each end user type getting a different version, JavaScript is ideal, non-Javascript works, but is not ideal, which is something we continue to work on, and search engine robots which is completely different from the others, conforming to standards, etc., see http://dev.noloh.com/#/blog/2010/08/23/strict-output-and-oth....
