There's an option for the basic HTML layout available if you have JS disabled.
That's the second-best approach. The first is using a JS-redirect to the flashy AJAX page, or just overriding all the default handlers necessary with JavaScript (remember, at this point, your content was already (supposed to be) properly rendered for you by the server).
- azakai 12y agoSure, there is an option for a no-JS version of Gmail, but the default definitely uses Gmail, because the user experience is much better - I think that's pretty clear. I agree doing some work on the server can also make sense, and that the new pre-rendered JS is an extension of progressive rendering which is not a new technique. It's a new way of doing it, though.
