Which bring me to my second point. Please keep the browser
requirements low, if you want as many people as possible to be able to
view the map. Requiring javascript will drop off a certain percentage
of the possible users (for example me), and requiring svg as well will
loose even more potential users. If you want as many users as
possible to be able to view your map, you should stick to the web
browser features available in all browsers.
I agree. The browser requirements to view maps should be kept low. But,
javascript is a really nice tool to make things more user friendly. Have
there been thoughts about having two versions, the non-javascript
version being switched to if javascript is turned off?
