What's the status on this?
Element technically has a <noscript>
, but it's pretty bad:
How about we create a static page (blue gradient background) with more instructions? Then again, that would play havoc with translation; I've no idea how that would work.
Well, I'm not really sure what kind of fallback @ara4n had in mind in 2015... It does at least present a simple message now, but agreed it could be better styled.
Hmm, yeah that's understandable. I'd vote for a static page which explains how to enable JavaScript (probably link to one of those "Enable JavaScript" sites), and that it needs to be enabled for Element to function. 😄
Not 100% sure how that would work without JavaScript, but it seems like a solid baseline.
We have various static pages for e.g. incompatible browsers, so perhaps we could leverage some of that.
Is this as simple as putting an iframe inside the noscript?
Hmm, perhaps that would work, worth a try at least. We'd probably want a separate static page to give a clear message instead of just "incompatible" since we know exactly what the issue is in this case.
To quote from #vector: "a quick feedback: Registration went well (as you can see), I just had to figure out that I not only have to switch on js for vector.im but also for matrix.org. Both is not shown. The page is just plain blank without."
