Suggestion

Hi,

 

A few month ago, I send an e-mail for a suggestion. I was redirected to
Philippe Le Hégaret (API) who answered me that I should contact this address
instead.

This idea was, in a few words, that every browser should send the Javascript
activation status, cookie status (and more ?) to the server… That way,
Webmasters could easily adapt their websites without having to test those
elements, which makes the code heavier and messier. Has the idea already
been discussed ?

 

Thanks in advance,

Luc SIMONS

 

Bellow, the original answers I got from Ian Jacobs and Philipe Le Hégaret :
