The state of the Web in 2017: This page is nothing but text but just renders as a blank page until you allow JavaScript



Or, until you turn off CSS (firefox: View->Page Style->No Style).

Then all the text appears, even without any JS running.


Nice! Is there also a way to print the text? I just get almost empty pages.


There is a way, but it involves a bit of work (again because the author used styles that hide everything unless the JS runs).

Save the page to disk (Firefox: File->Save Page As).

Then open the saved html file in a text editor and delete all of the <link> tags in the <head> section that reference style sheets and save the changes.

Then open the edited html page from disk, and the result will be printable.
