Text and Formatting
We have used Cascading style sheets (CSS) which format the website and also sets the colour and size of the text within the site. The formatting can be overriden:
- in Internet Explorer by selecting Tools >> Internet Options >> Accessibility
- in Netscape / Firefox by selecting Edit >> Preferences >> Appearance >> Fonts
- or you can select ‘view’ >> ‘text size’ in your browser to adjust the size of the text
We have ensured that all images used on this site include ‘alt tags’ which are descriptive attributes (unless they are purely decorative graphics which include empty alt attributes.)
Standards Compliance
This website used valid XHTML 1.0 Strict and CSS. We have used Bobby software to test for accessibility which confirms that this website complies with Priorities 1, 2 and 3 of the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines.
