Johny,
It's worth noting that there is no reason why a website shouldn't
have "all the bells and whistles" and still be accessible. Bells and
whistles may not always be appropriate, but then again, sometimes they are.
It depends on the site you're building and your target audience. The tricky
part is including what you want and doing it accessibly.
Regards,
Léonie.

Hi Paul
I think you're right. A lot of people who have a website like to have all
the whistles and bells they can. Any web developer worth his or her salt
will realise that this isn't commercially sound, or indeed needed. I think
a lot of inaccessible websites are simply down to inexperience on the behalf
of whoever designed the thing. No need.
Cheers for now
Johny
