How do you know JS does not work?

Because I get reminded that it does not work. Is there a definite
test so
that I am sure that it does not work? Thanks.

How about you give us a URL of a site's page you think uses Javascript
but the page "does not work"? Could be the site you're visiting simply
refuses to work with an antiquated web browser, like IE (any version).

Here are some test sites:

https://www.whatismybrowser.com/dete...script-enabled

http://www.cyscape.com/showbrow.aspx?bhcp=1
(check JavascriptEnabled value)

I did the test on your second URL and this is what I got:
http://www.cyscape.com/showbrow.aspx?bhcp=1&bhjs=-1

I now found that for some reason, very recently, my active scripting was
disabled and I enabled it and also set my security to medium. I then
ran your 'check' URL again and this is what I got:
http://www.cyscape.com/showbrow.aspx?doJvmd=1&bhcp=1

Just copy the information out of the browser window
and put it into a posting, OK ? Like I did for
you previously.

It has information like this:

JavaScript True
JavaScriptEnabled True
JavaScriptBuild 5.7.22589

That shows about as much stuff as Cyscape has to offer.

Go back and run Marks "clockie" test.

Tell us whether you see a digital clock with 1 second updates, or

you still see some message about some file.

Describe these things verbally, to avoid confusion here.
Paste text when it is available.

We can't expect you to upload images, short of you
running your own web server, due to the very
problem you're trying to debug. Without Javascript,
lots of the things we come to rely on, don't work.
