"You need to enable JavaScript to run this app."

What do you mean, "app"? There's no "app" there.

If anyone constructed a PDF, which was itself blank but, via embedded JavaScript, loaded parts of itself from a remote server, people would rightly balk and wonder what on earth the creator of this PDF was thinking — yet this is precisely the design of many “websites” [1]

Oh, my bad! It's a "landing page"! Totally normal that it needs to 200 Kb of JS to display 1 Kb of text!

Don't take it personally though, JS abuse is unfortunately common; just need to vent for once. But like the author of article I linked, people tend to just skip those blank pages. It's a tiny minority which is probably not the target audience anyway. Actual hackers would look at how you did it and make their own version.

So you can't write a simple form without JS?

Weirdo.

What in the world are you talking about?
