AJ,

In my opinion the most important thing is to assure that users of AT have access to all the information and functions available to everyone else.

You can say "Some part of the website is non-functional when JavaScript is disabled," IF --
1. the JavaScript does not provide information or functionality (e.g. mouseover affects), OR
2. the functionality and information are also provided without JavaScript.

Otherwise, JavaScript that exclusively provides functionality and/or information must work with AT.
