457: syntax</a>. This is because the way it works is by essentially
458: "turning off" the parser when scripts are enabled, so that the
459: contents of the element are treated as pure text and not as real
460: elements. XML does not define a mechanism by which to do this.<div class="example">
1.1 mike 461:
462: <p>In the following example, a <code><a href="#the-noscript-element" id="noscript_35">noscript</a></code> element is
463: used to provide fallback for a script.</p>
464:
465: <pre><form action="calcSquare.php">
466: <p>
467: <label for=x>Number</label>:
468: <input id="x" name="x" type="number">
469: </p>
470: <script>
471: var x = document.getElementById('x');
472: var output = document.createElement('p');
473: output.textContent = 'Type a number; it will be squared right then!';
474: x.form.appendChild(output);
475: x.form.onsubmit = function () { return false; }
476: x.oninput = function () {
477: var v = x.valueAsNumber;
478: output.textContent = v + ' squared is ' + v * v;
479: };
480: </script>
481: <noscript>
482: <input type=submit value="Calculate Square">
483: </noscript>
484: </form></pre>
485:
486: <p>When script is disabled, a button appears to do the calculation
487: on the server side. When script is enabled, the value is computed
488: on-the-fly instead.</p>
489:
490: <p>The <code><a href="#the-noscript-element" id="noscript_36">noscript</a></code> element is a blunt
491: instrument. Sometimes, scripts might be enabled, but for some
492: reason the page's script might fail. For this reason, it's
493: generally better to avoid using <code><a href="#the-noscript-element" id="noscript_37">noscript</a></code>, and to
494: instead design the script to change the page from being a
495: scriptless page to a scripted page on the fly, as in the next
496: example:</p>
497:
498: <pre><form action="calcSquare.php">
499: <p>
500: <label for=x>Number</label>:
501: <input id="x" name="x" type="number">
502: </p>
503: <strong><input id="submit" type=submit value="Calculate Square"></strong>
504: <script>
505: var x = document.getElementById('x');
506: var output = document.createElement('p');
507: output.textContent = 'Type a number; it will be squared right then!';
508: x.form.appendChild(output);
509: x.form.onsubmit = function () { return false; }
510: x.oninput = function () {
511: var v = x.valueAsNumber;
512: output.textContent = v + ' squared is ' + v * v;
513: };
514: <strong> var submit = document.getElementById('submit');
515: submit.parentNode.removeChild(submit);</strong>
516: </script>
517: </form></pre>
518:
519: <p>The above technique is also useful in XHTML, since
520: <code><a href="#the-noscript-element" id="noscript_38">noscript</a></code> is not supported in <a href="the-xhtml-syntax.html#the-xhtml-syntax">the XHTML
521: syntax</a>.</p>
