Standards Compliance
Our aim is to meet all priority 1 requirements of the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 (WCAG 2.0). Meeting this standard is commonly known as Level A compliance as interpreted by the Web Team. This is always a judgement call as not all accessibility features can be measured.
Most pages on this website validate as XHTML 1.0 Transitional.
All pages on this website validate as CSS 2.
All pages on this website use structured semantic markup. H1 tags are used for main titles, H2 tags for subtitles.
Visual Design
This website uses Cascading Stylesheets to seperate structure from presentation. If your browser does not support stylesheets, content is still available.
This website uses relative font sizes, compatible with Text Size options on modern visual browsers. This tool is available in the menu of the following browsers:
Internet Explorer 5, 5.5, 6 (PC): View > Text Size
Firefox, Netscape 8: View > Text Size
Opera: View > Zoom
Netscape 6, 7, Mozilla: View > Text Zoom
Safari (Mac): View > Make Text Bigger
Internet Explorer 5 (Mac): View > Text Zoom
The above steps are sufficient to adjust text size for the majority of cases. Where it is not, you can find further help on the My Web My Way website.
This website does not rely on images and where used, a text alternative is provided.
