See w3m-js and elinks with the dummy-js.diff ... They are by no means
exhaustive, but they both do a reasonable job for reasonable
javascript (not that there's much reasonable use of js out there on
the web).

Brings up a sidenote: for those interested in the google challenge,
anyone else interested in doing an entry which will a) show whether a
page is being Valid (X)HTML or b) provide a 'sanitized' version (like
the HTML-ized PDFs, PPTs, etc).

I'd like to be able to use google to look at 'clean' versions of web
pages.  Even if that was not possible, then I'd like to know which
resulting pages from a search are (X)HTML are compliant... and visit
those first.
