Site Design Features (the technical)
The design of this web site conforms as much as possible to the W3C Web Accessibility Initiative. Below are some of the features accessibility items that we considered in our most recent website redesign:
- To improve 'accessibility', the graphical web presentation of each page is separated from the actual content (the text and images that you read). HTML tags (markup) are used in a hierarchical way in order to best describe the page content. Graphical presentation is accomplished using Cascading Style Sheets (CSS).
- Web pages conform to HTML 4.0 Transitional -and can be validated using the World Wide Web Consortium's (W3C) web validator.
- Individual web pages use Cascading Style Sheets Level 2.
