JavaScript navigation causing an SEO problem?

[McTaggart]

Hi - I'm looking at a site using JavaScript dropdown navigation - Google can crawl the whole site but my thinking is this - If I ensure the dropdown navigation is functioning fully when JS is switched off, I may facilitate the search engine bots?

At the moment I can't get any dropdown effect if I turn JS off on the site but if I look at a cached page (text version) the dropdown links are visible and working.

I am wondering whether any crawl benefit is there if you take this a step further and ensure the drop downs are actually visible and working when JS is switched off?

I would welcome your thoughts on this.

Thanks in advance, Luke - 07966 729775

Hi Luke,

If you are looking to test with JS etc, then I can highly recommend you install the Web Developer chrome app - a very nice addition to a load of useful features.
