这是我使用的“最干净”的解决方案:

<noscript>
    <style>
        body *{ /*hides all elements inside the body*/
            display: none;
        }
        h1{ /* even if this h1 is inside head tags it will be first hidden, so we have to display it again after all body elements are hidden*/
            display: block;
        }
    </style>
    <h1>JavaScript is not enabled, please check your browser settings.</h1>
</noscript>

这里是转折! 可能有客户端浏览器启用了Javascript，并且使用JS兼容的浏览器。但是不管出于什么原因Javascript在浏览器中不能工作(比如:防火墙设置)。据统计，这种情况每93个场景中就会发生1个。所以服务器检测到客户端有能力执行Javascript，但实际上并没有!

作为解决方案，我建议我们在客户端站点设置一个cookie，然后从服务器读取它。如果cookie设置好了，JS就可以正常工作。有什么想法吗?

对于那些只想跟踪js是否被启用的人，如何使用ajax例程来存储状态?例如，我将所有访问者/访问记录在一组表中。JSenabled字段可以设置为默认值FALSE，如果启用了JS, ajax例程会将其设置为TRUE。

下面是一个PHP脚本，它可以在生成任何输出之前包含一次。它不是完美的，但在大多数情况下，它工作得足够好，以避免交付客户端不会使用的内容或代码。标题注释解释了它是如何工作的。

// Progressive enhancement and graceful degradation are not sufficient if we
// want to avoid sending HTML or JavaScript code that won't be useful on the
// client side.  A normal HTTP request will not include any explicit indicator
// that JavaScript is enabled in the client.  So a "preflight response" is
// needed to prompt the client to provide an indicator in a follow-up request.
// Once the state of JavaScript availability has been received the state of
// data received in the original request must be restored before proceding.
// To the user, this handshake should be as invisible as possible.
// 
// The most convenient place to store the original data is in a PHP session.
// The PHP session extension will try to use a cookie to pass the session ID
// but if cookies are not enabled it will insert it into the query string.
// This violates our preference for invisibility.  When Javascript is not
// enabled the only way to effect a client side redirect is with a "meta"
// element with its "http-equiv" attribute set to "refresh".  In this case
// modifying the URL is the only way to pass the session ID back.
//
// But when cookies are disabled and JavaScript is enabled then a client side
// redirect can be effected by setting the "window.onload" method to a function
// which submits a form.  The form has a "method" attribute of "post" and an
// "action" attribute set to the original URL.  The form contains two hidden
// input elements, one in which the session ID is stored and one in which the
// state of JavaScript availability is stored.  Both values are thereby passed
// back to the server in a POST request while the URL remains unchanged.  The
// follow-up request will be a POST even if the original request was a GET, but
// since the original request data is restored, the containing script ought to
// process the request as though it were a GET.

// In order to ensure that the constant SID is defined as the caller of this
// script would expect, call session_start if it hasn't already been called.

人们已经发布了一些例子，这些例子都是很好的检测选项，但是基于你的要求“给出警告，如果浏览器没有启用JS，站点将无法正常运行”。你可以添加一个元素，让它以某种方式出现在页面上，例如当你获得徽章时，在Stack Overflow上弹出相应的消息，然后用一些Javascript删除它，在页面加载时立即运行(我指的是DOM，而不是整个页面)。

我认为你可以在noscript标签中插入一个图像标签，并查看你的站点有多少次以及这个图像被加载的频率。
