I don't really see the point to browsing with JS disabled any more. Most browsers are so overprotective that they block JS popups anyway, and as long as you stick to safe browsing practice you shouldn't run into any risk of security problems.

On that, though, I know there are people who browse with JS disabled and for those cases I always make sure the site will function without it. For example, on a drop-down menu, make sure the top layer will be displayed with or without Javascript and make those links to pages that can navigate through that layer. In my case, I am going to be using AJAX for a portion of our team's site this year, to load dynamic content on a portion of that page, but I'll make sure that the most important of those will be the default load, so if JS is disabled, that will still function.
