Congratulations, your page is completely blank.

No it isn't. I and most people can read it just fine. It's completely blank for you. Choosing to turn javascript off then complaining when javascript-enabled pages don't work is your problem, not the author's.

  So, as the man said, the page is completely blank. This is indisputable. A bit further down the road, some script may populate it with content, but the page itself is blank. Shoddy craftmanship. Edit: The page is blank even with scripts allowed. All content is provided by third party scripting.

    I wrote a web browser that ignores all text in <p> tags. Every page I look at is blank! Shoddy craftsmanship!

      Ignoring text in <p> tags goes against any version of html-spec. Ignoring scripts does not. Ignoring external scripts most emphatically does not.

    >This is indisputable. It is disputable. I read the article on the so-called blank page. I viewed the source of the so-called blank page. It is in no objective or indisputable way completely blank. >A bit further down the road, some script may populate it with content, but the page itself is blank. Shoddy craftmanship. The page is not blank. The document as rendered in your browser is blank - but you and others have made a conscious decision not to run javascript in your browser. As a result, you are getting precisely the result you intended, as said page requires javascript to render text. Whether or not using javascript to render text is a good idea is irrelevant, and completely orthogonal to the topic. >Edit: The page is blank even with scripts allowed. All content is provided by third party scripting. Third party scripts count as scripts. Also, you're wrong, as there are both inline and third party scripts on the page. FFS, go yell at some clouds or something.

      but you and others have made a conscious decision not to run javascript in your browser I most certainly have not. I run everything the domain serves up. Only not automatically the stuff served up by third party servers. Hence, I am not "also wrong".
