You have a choice between:

1) HTML without JavaScript and without documentation search functionality

and

2) HTML with JavaScript and with documentation search functionality where such 
search functionality doesn't work on text-based browsers, but everything else 
does.

I don't see that as a choice. If you do, then you are promoting denial of 
service for everyone not using lynx (if I am to use your wording).

As for "simple html", that needs defining. I am not sure lynx supports even div 
tags and it definitely doesn't support simple header/footer/nav/button/video/
article/section/... tags from simple html version 5. So, what exactly is 
simple html? Who defines that? If anything, html is going towards simplicity by 
introducing semantic tags (such as those I've mentioned), but is that simple 
or complex?
