Handling no script

Hi i have a No script tag with a http redirect, but my page will not validate to w3c

is there a way to check the clients javascript using server side?

or a better way to handle the no script?

The problem must be caused by something else. The http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interac...#edef-NOSCRIPT complies with the latest W3C specification.

the noscript tag is fine, its whats inside the tag

what the best way to redirect to another cfm page inside the noscript tag

<NOSCRIPT>
<meta HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="0; URL=http://www.myOtherWebSite.com">
</NOSCRIPT>

ok thats what i had but i get w3c error

document type does not allow element "META" here.

i have it ion my head tag?

I can see the dilemma. It is generally expected that <meta> will be within the
head and <noscript> within the body. So where do you place the combination of
<noscript> and >meta>?

I would place the tags where they produce the result I want, namely, in the
head, where the script tag usually is, and accept the w3c error for what it is.
Your requirement that the noscript tag do a redirect may actually be
self-contradictory. At least, that is my opinion. The noscript tag is designed
to provide alternative content -- for the current page, I would assume
-- when the script tag is not executed.
