Is enabling JavaScript in browser a MUST to get working ASP.NET pages?
<p>This is a newbie question (I'm sure it is). I have tried for the first time in a little ASP.NET web application I am working on what happens if I disable Javascript in a browser (I'm testing mainly with Firefox). </p>

<p>Result: My application is completely broken, although I didn't ever write any single line of Javascript.</p>

<p>For instance: I have a link button on a page from a LoginStatus control. Looking at the generated HTML code in my browser I see this:</p>

<pre><code>&lt;a id="ctl00_ctl00_LoginStatus" href="javascript:__doPostBack('ctl00$ctl00$LoginStatus$ctl02','')"&gt;Login&lt;/a&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>Similar with some link buttons in a ListView control which allow to sort the list by certain data fields: The <code>href</code> of the generated anchor tag contains this: <code>javascript:WebForm_DoPostBackWithOptions(...)</code>.</p>

<p>So clicking on "Login" or trying to sort does not work without having Javascript enabled.</p>

<p>Does this mean: With disabled Javascript in the browser ASP.NET applications won't work properly? Or what do I have to do to get the application working with disabled Javascript? </p>

<p>Thanks for your feedback!</p>
