Accessibility
This site is designed specifically
as predominantly a text site for users who prefer fewer graphics and
simpler screen rendering and reading. Apart from your existing text
only facility, the following additional accessibility functions have
been built in:
Page map
A non-visible page map (in the HTML) that lets users (especially
those with screen readers) skip to the main content.
Text legibility
High contrast text colours in screen readable font has been used
and the main text is scaleable in size. This lets users control the
default font size; try the SIZE button or the ZOOM button in your
browser.
Older web browsers
We have checked that the pages are navigable in much older
browsers like Netscape versions 2 and 3.
Web standards
Some of our content does not meet current best practice, but we
are working towards:
- standards compliant code, eg XHTML 1
- W3C WAI Level A standard
