There's another way, too. I got this idea off surveymonkey.com:
wrap a meta refresh within a <noscript></noscript> that will direct you to a
page stating that you'll need javascript. Javascript enable browsers will
ignore the refresh and continue, whereas nonjavascript browsers will follow
the refresh directive.
For example:
<noscript><meta HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="0;
url=/NeedSomething.asp?T=member&error=nojavascript"></noscript>
