jqueryui without javascript

Question

Does anyone use jQueryUI (such as the CSS framework part) without the jQuery component? If you were catering for users who don't have javascript or who have it disabled etc

A particular scenario would be the dialogs which are so brilliant and simple...without javascript its just a div though...would a potential solution be to have the dialog div with a class that positions it absolutely and above other elements and then to remove that class when jQueryUI sets up the dialog...so that if javascript cannot run the dialog still has the class?

or would you use the css framework to create the dialog manually perhaps...

Answer 1

I use the CSS all the time outside of jQueryUI; I find it provides a much more consistent look-and-feel.

As for the rest of the question...whatt?!

and then to remove that class when jQueryUI sets up the dialog

How do you plan on having jQueryUI run ("set up the dialog") without JavaScript being enabled? If you put the dialog up without JavaScript, it won't be able to move or close; you'll be stuck with a giant div in the middle of the screen.
