Detect if Javascript is enabled?

Question

Hi,
Is it possible to detect whether javascript has been disabled if so redirect to another page? My application is being developed with JSPs, as I am using a lot of fancy javascript stuff in my application.
Thanks in Advance

Found another answer to this question at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/121203/how-to-detect-if-javascript-is-disabled

"noscript" tag IS the most semanticly accurate way to specify non-javascript content - and rather then detecting if javascript is disabled, detect if it's enabled. So show the "you need javascript to properly use my site" message by default, but hide it with a javascript function immediately onLoad. – matt lohkamp

 document.write("Is Java enabled? " + navigator.javaEnabled() );
