Maybe we should offer both automatic and a pref setting. I ripped out the pref
code I put in, and replaced it with a semi-automatic which saves a setting to
the session. But now I'm thinking I should put back the pref one too.
I was working from the assumption that some users would want the javascript
disabled whatever browser they use, but I see the point also of users prefering
an automatic detection in different settings eg. Chuck's example of a work
computer and a home computer.
