Question

Do .htc style behaviours still work if javascript is disabled?

I'd like to use whatever:hover to create some css only drodpowns and would like to know if IE will still pay attention to the htc file if js is disabled.

Answer 1

In a word, no.

In two words, in order to satisfy the SO reply box, “no” and “no” (again).
