This is cute: if you go to the NYS online landing page and chose create account, and have Javascript forbidden, and then enter the security code, you get this page:>

Individual Account Creation

You must first login to access your Online Service Application. The application that you are requesting can only be accessed after a successful login.

If you have any further issues please contact us for assistance.

In other words, the error message say “if you want to create an account to log in, then you have to log in first before you can create an account to log in”.

I assume this is because I have Javascript off, but shouldn't it give me a better error message?
