Well, if my browser supports JavaScript, and I leave it enabled, it will honour <script> elements and pass over <noscript>; if I turn off JavaScript, it will skip the <script> elements and honour <noscript>. Why might it do something different if I turn off audio and/or video, w.r.t. <audio> and/or <video> elements ? Philip TAYLOR
