I too HATE java and javascript. I feel that if you want to do something cool on your page, it should be done on the server end. That is why I favor things like PHP and CGI over java and java-script. It's bad enought that these new browsers crash and run really slow to begin with, why should I have to process your web page on my end!
Also, if there is a page that will not work without javascript, I will not go to that page. Rest assured that the same will apply for people's pages in general. If the page will not load without a newer browser, I will not go to that page. There is always somewhere else to go!
