One of the challenges I faced was creating a form with a hidden div section that only appears when a specific element is selected from a list. To achieve this, I utilized CSS to set the display property of the div to 'none' and then used jQuery to show it upon selection.
Unfortunately, this approach has its limitations. If a user disables JavaScript in their browser, the div will remain hidden even after making a selection.
In an attempt to address this issue, I experimented with <noscript> tags and a script with a type of 'text/html' as shown below:
<noscript> <div id="extra" style="display:block"></noscript>
<script type="text/html">
<div id="extra" style="display:none">
</script>
...
</div>
However, this solution proved ineffective as modern browsers like Chrome 32 and Safari 6 tend to ignore scripts with the text/html type when JavaScript is enabled.
As I continue to search for a better or more correct way to handle this situation, I welcome any suggestions or insights on alternative approaches.
