What do you consider inaccessible?I wholly agree, but I don't think that we're
going to be able to influence the reliance on rich media content; look at
Jonathon Hassles approach to this and maybe I am wrong.

Subject: [access-uk] What do you consider inaccessible?
In all my web browsing, I find that my biggest problem is websites that make
jaws freeze or whip the cursor away.
Lots of talk goes into accessibility of websites, putting in alt text, adding
header tags, but the worst sites are the dynamic ones that have oodles of
functionality and applets . even if you don't use them they seem to affect the
readability of the page.
Usually I just want to read a page. I can live without header tags and alt
text and the other little accessibliity tickboxes like using CSS structuring
instead of tables. I can live with all that . but I can't use websites that
jump around all over the place cos they're loaded with fun.
What I want to know is . is it just me? Please respond because I'm keen to
refocus the accessibility debate if I'm right.
