Hidden Text Can Be Legitimate

Despite all the warnings you see in submission guidelines about hidden text - there is at least one example I can think of where it is legitimate. I use scripted navigation on one of my sites. If the site is viewed by someone with a text only or scripts disabled browser (or indeed they are a disabled person using a text reader - very important in the UK) - they wouldn't be able to navigate unless there was standard hyperlink navigation also. The best place for this navigation is at the top or left of the page (which is where the dynamic navigation lives) - solution - give the scripted navigation a higher Z index and absolutely position it above the standard hyperlinks. If the browser does Javascript - it sees dynamic - otherwise the hyperlinks are visible.

I'm not deceiving anyone - I am just covering all eventualities.

Peace and prosperity

In this situation you can use <noscript></noscript> construction as well.
SEs don't regard it as spam.

Thanks for that adore. That might be handy in the future.
