Re: [Web-erp-developers] User Settings

[Phil D. <p.d...@pa...>]

I wonder if a setting for enable javascript is necessary - either it
works or it doesn't. Since we are only using javascript as gloss on  the
GUI the system should always be usable with just PHP - as I think we all
agree it is just that the focus and perhaps drop down menus could be
useful additions to the marketability stuff.
