Accessibility

Standards compliance

Our website uses Cascading Style Sheets for presentation and aims to meet the "AA" conformance level of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines.

In plain English, this means that the site can be viewed in all modern browsers, and other devices such as screen readers, to make the site as accessible as possible.

Older browsers (such as Internet Explorer 4 and Netscape 4) do not comply with these web standards, so users of these browsers will not experience the site at its best. They will be able to read and navigate the site, but we strongly recommend they upgrade to a standards-compliant browser:

Firefox
Netscape
Microsoft Internet Explorer
Opera

For Mac OS X only:
Safari
Camino

Text size

If the text on this site is too small for you to read, you can choose a larger size:

  • in Internet Explorer (Windows), use View, Text Size on the browser menu
  • in Netscape 6 or 7 and Internet Explorer (Mac), use the View, Text Zoom on the browser menu
