Hmm, I couldn't really give you an example web page that has all the required items on it, especially since I'm not sure if such a site exists. Cam might know of an example.

Most websites only use 2 or 3 of those accessibility features. Think of an online newspaper that has a button to let people increase or decrease the size of the font. YouTube's been getting on the accessibility bandwagon of late as well, they've added a closed captioning feature that lets the author write subtitles for the video in multiple languages.

It really depends on what the topic of your website is. Consider your audience and put features that are targeted towards them. For example, you said you were making a website about a park. I would think having a button to toggle the font size would be suitable. Not really sure what else would be helpful. Do you think a sitemap would fit into the category of accessibility? Ensuring it is simple and easy to navigate?

Also, just do everything this website does and you'll be fine.

As oddly said, it depends on the content and the targeted userbase. If you look at most (good) government related sites, they have most of those features. Especially information-orientated sites. I believe the site for bc student loans had most of these. Also, for changing text size, I'd just tell users to use the capability native to their web browser. Since I'm lazy. I'd probably make those instructions of larger font than the standard.

while HTML5 is certainly something to look forward to, HTML5 isn't necessarily supported by most web browsers yet. To be safe, I would imagine it's going to take a little while to catch on.

From the WHATWG FAQ (Italics mine):

It is estimated, again by the editor, that HTML5 will reach a W3C recommendation in the year 2022 or later.

'Nuff said.

For my class project, I'm to create a website for some park organisation and I'm having a shit of a time figuring it out.  HTML and CSS structure is easy enough to figure out, but I'd like to have an element scroll with the page; it's in a wonderful place (positioned relative inside a bunch of other elements) and I'm wondering if there's any way to simply and dynamically change its up-down position based on the scrollbar's position.  Specifically, is there a way to write some JavaScript that will change the element's top-margin value based on the scrollbar?  If not, is there perhaps some other (simple) way to do it?

Depends what you mean. Do you just want it to scroll with the rest of the page (like a static menu that scrolls down with the user)? Here's what I think you're trying to do: scroll link.

And stop trying to work logic into webpages! It would be cumbersome to have a website try to calculate the relative size of a scrollbar. I don't even know how the hell one would do that.

Oh lol I thought you actually wanted to put logic type things on your site, yeah CSS should suffice, if your current whatever cannot use fixed then I suggest you rethink the whatever.
