I realize that it probably doesn’t pay, but it wouldn’t be that difficult to implement just a form to type queries and a basic html result page that works without javascript.

Welcome to my Friday nightmare. Some update broke dropdowns on IE9 because, apparently plain form select HTML is no longer a viable thing because we can't beautify it. Why my erp to UPS connector needed beautification I don't know. I call, they know, everybody using IE (as required by this connector) is down. Great. Patch rolls in the morning and suddenly looks like chrome is supported.

Sigh

It certainly wouldn’t. Forms have been with us for a very long time and I’ve done it more times than I can remember.
