str: 0) disable javascript 1) open an edit box e.g. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CharInsert?action=edit actual: 1) char insert is visible below the edit box, but clicking it does nothing expected: 1) char insert itself is not visible rationale: mediawiki should not expose non-functional interface elements to users
oops, i had wrong component
(In reply to Gryllida from comment #0) > 0) disable javascript Which browser(s) still allow that?
Every modern browser allows that. Firefox: javascript.enabled in about:config Google Chrome: https://productforums.google.com/d/msg/chrome/BYOQskiuGU0/5PRO2P-1WWwJ Internet Explorer: http://browsers.about.com/od/internetexplorertutorials/ss/disable-javascript-ie9.htm Anywhere, anytime: NoScript, AdBlockPlus Less stupid use-case: crappy or mobile Internet, JavaScript simply didn't load yet. Past background: - Bug 71038 is being fixed. (Scribunto should show script error details to JavaScriptless users) - Bug 69778 is confirmed. (BetaFeatures looks ugly with JavaScript disabled) - Bug 57895 is confirmed. (Flow: Without javascript, there are no "cancel" or "preview" buttons for creating or editing content) - Bug 66269 is confirmed. (Make a version of book navigation that works without javascript ) - Bug 53454 is confirmed. (Make working TOC without JavaScript on the mobile frontend.) - ... - continued at https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=without%20javascript&list_id=345433 There should be a tag, or a tracking bug, for such things, I hope.
