Web standards and Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI)

Web Standards

We have ensured, as far as possible, that this site is built using compliant XHTML and CSS (Cascading Style Sheet) as defined in the standards set by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). The site displays correctly with current browsers, and using standards compliant code means that any future browsers will also display this website correctly.

The W3C is the organisation that produces the standards and specifications for the World Wide Web.

Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI)

The Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI), is part of the W3C, and is devoted to promoting accessibility on the web. The WAI has a series of guidelines and checkpoints which aim to make websites more accessible.

We have endeavoured to make this site comply as fully as possible with the WAI's Priority 1 checkpoints. In addition, we also comply with many of the Priority 2 and 3 checkpoints as well.

Keyboard Shortcuts

This website incorporates ACCESSKEY functionality. The following list details the keyboard shortcuts available from the navigation bar of this site. These commands are designed to help users with difficulty in using pointing devices such as a mouse. To use these shortcuts hold down Alt, then press the corresponding number, release and then press return.

Note: for users of Netscape/Firefox/Mozilla there is no need to press return. For users of Opera please use Shift + Escape then the key number. For Mac users, please substitute the Alt key for Ctrl.
