Design considerations

 

Screen readers

 

For users of screen readers, at the start of each page you have the option to skip the navigation to main content.

Text size


All text is assigned a relative font size allowing you to control the text size, to increase the text size:

Internet Explorer: View > Text size

Netscape: Edit > Preferences > Appearance > Fonts

Opera: File > Preferences > Fonts > Minimum font size (pixels)

You can also scroll with the wheel of your mouse whilst holding down the control key.

Images


All informational images contain an ALT tag and decorative images have a null ALT attribute.

Links


All links to pages within the website and links to external websites will open in the same window, unless specifically indicated by the link. For files, such as Word documents, the website will open these in new windows.

Content

 

The use of a light background throughout the site, with plain black text, makes reading easier on the eyes, and allows the reader to take in more information.

Compatibility


This site has been designed and tested to be compatible with the following browsers:

 

  • Internet Explorer 5.0, 5.5, and 6.0
  • Netscape 7.0, 7.2
  • Mozilla 1.7
