Visual Design
This site uses cascading style sheets to control the presentation of pages. Most font sizes are relative, compatible with the user-specified "text size" option in visual browsers. If stylesheets are not supported or are turned off, information on the site can still be accessed and read.
Features to further enhance the site’s accessibility
- HTML heading elements have been used to represent page structure, supporting assistive technologies that allow page navigation from heading to heading
- All hyperlinks make sense when read out of context, and hyperlinks change colour when the destination page has been visited
- All images have been given appropriate alternative text
- A navigation bar linking to the main sections of the site is provided at the top and bottom of each page
- A 'breadcrumb trail' navigation feature is provided to help navigation
