is there a way to fake having javascript on?

Over the years I've found myself using links more and more for web browsing, for load times if no other reason. Oh yeah, and the blithely getting past popup ads without realizing they're there until I re-visit a site on a javoids-on browser. :)

In the above, I made one alteration from the original quoted text: i replaced the displayed IP with "xx.xx.xx.xx".
I'm pretty sure that I can get links to accept cookies and promptly discard them, thus keeping that part of the problem from manifesting, if only because wget can do it, so it is possible.
Does anyone know how to get links (or any non-javiods browser) to say "yeah, I have javascript on, really I do, trust me on this one, dude," to the site it's trying to fetch from.
Thank you.
