Standards compliance

This website aims to conform to:

  • W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1

  • Priority 1,2 and 3 Guidelines

  • XHTML 1.02

  • CSS2

 

Structure and presentation have been separated - the HTML documents contain the text ou see on screen and some structual tags (for example, <font> tags are not used on this website).

 

 

Browser compatibility

This website has been tested to offer the full functionality on Windows and Macintosh on the following browsers:

  • Internet Explorer 6.0 and 7.0

  • Firefox 1.0.7, 1.5 and 2.0

  • Safari 2.0.4

  • Screen sizes ranging from 800px in width and up

 

This website relies on CSS2, which is unsupported by IE 4 and below and Netscape 4 and below. It can be accessed on these browsers but with no styling applied to the pages. The decision to use CSS2 was taken due to the very small number of Internet users browsing with these older versions (now less than 1%).
