If the user has JS turned off, the search function appears to run, but dumps the user to a Search Results page with no content.

Otherwise, WWR seems to be largely functional with JS off.

It’s a Google thing. I’m not saying it’s their problem, because of course we could implement a separate search for people who have JS turned off, but that’s why. However, how many people these days browse with Javascript off?
