I have no Javascript and I must favourite

Is it possible to enable add-ons like Flash and Javascript in the web browser for the Nintendo DSi?
On a second look it appears the source didn't consider the DSi but what I said should still be applicable.

It's not simply that Flash is too CPU-intensive (though that is likely true). Flash is a binary plugin - another piece of software, separate from the browser, whereas Javascript interpreters are built into the browser. So for Flash to be available on a given platform such as the DSi, Adobe would have to create a version for that platform, then Nintendo would have to include it with their browser. This has obviously not happened.
