Testing if Javascript and Cookies are Enabled

[jsulman]

Is there a way in a Java servlet that I can test to see if the browsers Javascript and cookies are enabled?

Thanks in advance.

Good method, but keep in mind that it will invoke two requests and the user will see something "strange".

What about designing the starting page so it will send a hidden field with the data you need?
