What's wrong with JavaScript? Are you just that Ludditus?
It isn't innately evil, but I have a policy that it should be used only where it does something useful that can't be done on the server side, and if it is used, it has to downgrade gracefully. 90% of all Javascript on the Web is at best questionable in its usefulness and undergoes no downgrade testing. I wanted the site to be usable in Lynx (which has no Javascript capability at all), and for people who prefer to turn Javascript off to keep it from being used as a vector for unwanted ads and other nasties.
