Explanation

Many web pages rely on JavaScript (scripting) to trigger actions such as opening a document viewer, initiating a file download, or launching an overlay/modal. If scripting is disabled in the browser, clicking a link that depends on a JavaScript event handler will produce no response - nothing happens. Pop-up blockers would typically show a blocked notification, high security settings often display a warning, and an invalid web certificate would generate a security error page rather than complete silence.
