Standards Compliance

My aim is to make this website accessible to as many people as possible. To do this, all pages are written in semantic, valid XHTML and CSS for presentation. If your browser does not support CSS, the content will still be accessible.

Access Keys

Most browsers support site-defined keyboard shortcuts for activating specified links. On Windows systems, the usual method to invoke the keyboard shortcut is to press ALT + an access key. On Macintosh, press CTRL + an access key.

However, with the recent release of Mozilla Firefox 2 and Internet Explorer 7 (IE7), things have chaged a little. With Firefox, you need to press SHIFT + ALT + an access key. With IE7, you need to press ALT + an access key, then release them and press ENTER.

These are the access keys for this site:

The following browsers have built in text resizing functionality:

Alternatively, scroll the wheel of your mouse while holding down the CTRL key.
