[wp-testers] Having "script" enabled browser-dumb question

[Kirk M]

Please excuse the rather dumb question but since I use a local blog 
editor for 95% of my posting, does 2.5's TinyMCE absolutely require Java 
script to be enabled in a given browser in order to function? The only 
reason I ask is that in checking out someone else's "bug" I disabled 
scripting in Firefox 3 (trunk-RC builds)  and after the page was 
reloaded (Write Post) Tags, Categories, the Toolbar and the the "Add 
Media" bar were among the missing plus the ability to switch from 
"Visual" to "HTML" was gone (stuck on the Visual tab).

I always run with scripting enabled no matter what the browser so this 
is the first time I've seen any version of TinyMCE with scripting turned 
off. Again, I apologize if this is the way it's always been. Just curious.
