I was watching a friend create a website for a hospital foundation today. She's a professional graphics person. The site had rollover buttons and she wanted to have menus pop out from rollovers too.
I suggested this might not be a great idea - that not everyone had javascript running - and recommended some other simplifications. She just laughed. "If I showed something like that to the people in charge of this project, I'd be out on my ass," she explained. "They want glitz, graphics, everything very slick. So I give it to them."
I'm all for accessibility, but how do you argue against someone making a living? That's where the crux is.
