Accessibility
The site has been designed to be accessible by just about
anyone with a browser that supports minimum HTML 4 or above, with the
majority of the scripting all happening on the server for maximum portablity.
I've tested it on IE, Chrome, Netscape, Opera, Safari, Firefox and Konqueror.
All images have textual support via ALT tags, so if you have a slow modem,
a disability or some other reason for switching images off, you should
still be able to find your way around. Images have all been compressed
to the maximum practical. All fonts are resizable and an appropriate CSS
is used, via a script, depending on which client browser is being used.
W3C WAI/WCAG Conformance
All pages on the site (except the blog system, which is
driven by a third party engine) conform to at least level A of the W3C
Web Content Accessibiility Guidelines (WCAG), which are part of the W3C
Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI). Most pages, including the homepage,
should conform to level AA or AAA.
Screen Resolution
All pages should format nicely to the screen resolution your are using
although the site probably views best at 800 x 600 or above - I'm a firm
believer in pages that adjust to screen resolutions where possible, and
not use fixed width pages tuned to the lowest denominator so when viewed
on high resolution screens you lose valuable screen real estate by haviing
masses of whitespace on the left and right edges (or indeed the opposite
of this, resulting in awkward horizontal scrollbars at the bottom of the
window concerned).
