I’m playing with jQuery Mobile (1.1.0 RC1) because it basically does all the work of making my website look nice on mobile devices.

What am I supposed to do if javascript is disabled? I’m still new to HTML5, but my understanding is that the styling is based on the data-* attributes and without jQuery being able to read which theme/role it needs, no styling can be applied.

I can’t find a default stylesheet that I can just apply, and the Theme Roller doesn’t give a base swatch. Does jQuery Mobile have any kind of fallback for this, or do I need to write a custom set of stylesheets myself?

    jQuery Mobile only really works well on browsers that support jQuery. Otherwise, the grading system kicks in and your app will degrade. Consider applying a custom stylesheet in a <noscripts> tag for those users.

    <noscript>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="your-non-jqm-css.css" />
</noscript>
