Standards compliance

  • All Web pages use HTML 5.2 
  • All pages use structured semantic markup. For instance, each page contains one Header 1 Level Tag, and any appropriate sub-level heading tags. All paragraphs are properly coded with paragraph tags.


Navigation aids

  • All pages on this site include a consistent set of global main navigation links
  • Drop down main navigation menus use "Tab" to move from major heading to major heading, with arrow keys to access drop down submenus.
  • All sub-navigation menus will appear below the main navigation menu.

Links

  • Wherever possible, links are written to make 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).
  • Many browsers (such as JAWS, Home Page Reader, Lynx, and Opera) can extract the list of links on a page and allow the user to browse the list, separately from the page.
  • If link text is duplicated; eg. "Read more" links, then "title" text is used to distinguish them.
  • All links open in a new tab.

Images

  • All content images used on this site include descriptive ALT attributes. Purely decorative graphics include empty ALT attributes.


Visual design

  • This site uses Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) for visual layout. Content is independent of CSS.
  • Users may disable CSS or use their own style sheets.
  • Where possible color brightness and illuminosity meet WCAG level 2 standards.
  • Current page focus is highlighted in contrasting colors.
