Would you please reply (either by email or here in the comments) to let me know how I can give you credit?

Many thanks for this wonderful solution. I’m afraid I’ve been using illegal noscript tags to achieve this effect before!

I had to add type equals text slash javascript to the second opening script tag.

On one of my Ajax sites, I use meta refresh to update data for non-js browsers. For js-enabled browsers I needed a way to turn off the meta refresh as data is updated the Ajax way.

Finally after hours of googling (and a couple of beers), I found your solution.

I changed line 5 to make my validator happy.
document.write(‘/*’);

Thanks again.
