Website Accessibility Statement

Overview

We are committed to making this website as accessible as possible to people using different browsers and assistive technologies and to people with different impairments.

To that end, we have worked towards this website passing Priority 3 of the World Wide Web Consortium's Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0.

All pages in this website validate to XHTML 1.0 Strict, and the stylesheet validates as CSS 2.0.

Access keys

Most browsers support jumping to specific links by typing keys defined on the web site. On Windows, you can press ALT + an access key; on Macintosh, you can press Control + an access key.

This site uses the following access keys:

Other

The following accessibility techniques were used:

• The site is written in as plain English as possible.
• All images have alternative text except for blank images which have null ALT attributes. More complex images also have long descriptions.
• The site uses relative text sizes so users may specify their own. (In Internet Explorer, increase the text size by selecting View > Text Size > Largest).
• Navigation aids for text browser users, including "skip links" for bypassing navigation bars and relative links.
• All pages on this site use structured semantic markup. H2 tags are used for main titles, H3 tags for subtitles. For example, on this page, JAWS users can skip to the next section within the accessibility statement by pressing ALT+INSERT+3.
• All link text makes sense out of context. Many links have title attributes which describe the link in greater detail, unless the text of the link already fully describes the target (such as the headline of an article).
• All pages contain a search box.
• The site uses a stylesheet but can be rendered without it or using a custom stylesheet.
