Javascript required not a good strategy....
Much to my dismay I found out X-Cart requires Javascript after I purchased it. Several current browser statistics show that roughly 10% of users have Javascript disabled. That means that I'll give up 10% of my potential customers if I switch from my current shopping cart to X-Cart.
Before I go through the process of removing Javascript and replacing it with non-Javascript link submissions I want to know if anyone else has already done this? Its a daunting task as there are 67 submit() Javascript references in my skin1 directory but one way or another I'm going to have a shop that doesn't require it (but will support it if available).
Are there any plans by the X-Cart development team to remove this need? I can understand Javascript being required for non-shopping sites but the whole point of E-Commerce is sales ---- would you want to give up 10% of your market?
