The standards perhaps need to catch up with reality on this kind of technology so that producers of screen readers are encouraged to take dynamic features into account.
Like kgun, I believe more dynamism in web sites is the way things are going.
JavaScript is perhaps the least dangerous client side scripting available and there really is no reason why it shouldn't always be turned on in browsers. Conesquently, I have no intention of producing a JavaScript free version of my little app.
