The theory is, to be accepted, a site should be usable with JS disabled. How do you guys handle this apparant limitation ?

Submit a site that isn't js dependent.

if the JS is only used for the navigation, then you could dupe the site and just have a different navigation. Then submit this one to Yahoo......I am not a promoter of duplicating a site, but it is an option <shrug>

My problem is I work on a once-off basis with clients who don't want/can't afford ongoing "maintenance".This calls for both low-tech SEO, and an approach the designers can at least grudgingly accept.(Nuff said?)

And of course it's not hard to find sites in Yahoo that don't seem to have stuck to the strict"dress code".

Not sure what "dupe" entails, (IP delivery?);the best I could come up with was to either have an"update" after a listing has been confirmed, or have a JS free alternative ready to re-submit if rejected.
