Web Site Accessibility

We have made many efforts to make our web site as user friendly and accessible as possible. From easy navigation and readable text content to adding access keys to all of the important pages within our site.

We believe that all users should be able to use our site to gather information about our products and services including those with disabilities. We have followed strict guidelines on the use of html mark up languages and the web accessibility initiative as is developed by the Worldwide Web Consortium (W3C).
Whilst this page contains mostly information based on the accessibility of our own web site, it also provides a working example that is implemented into our clients web sites.

Measures We Have Taken

  • We have followed strict guidelines from W3C on the validation of our markup languages. On this site we have used the latest of HTML markup languages known as XHTML 1.1 which is a strict code with no room for errors. You can view our live validation results by using the links to the right of the page!
  • We have followed strict guidelines from W3C on the validation of our cascading style sheets (CSS). Cascading Style Sheets remove many of the structural code phrases from the HTML itself such as image placement, text styling and positioning, this makes the HTML code much cleaner, shorter and more importantly: More Accessible! Cascading Style Sheets can remove the need for tables nested within a sites structure. Tables can create a whole load of accessibility issues, especially when used in mass. Our site contains only 1 small table at the top of each page but has been made accessible with special markups!
  • We have worked long and hard on conforming to Accessibility Guidelines as W3C has laid out. There are three levels of conformance to achieve within the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0, 1: Level A, 2: Double Level A & 3: Triple Level A. We currently conform to a double level A standard and are working towards triple level A. For more information see: W3C Web Accessibility Initiative.
  • We have created a separate cascading style sheet purely for printing pages within our site. When the print button in your web browser is pressed on any one of our pages, it will exclude all of the colour consuming images and backgrounds and concentrate only on the important text information within that page. Only one small image will be printed along with the text content in the Mozilla Firefox browser, all other browsers should be just plain text.
  • We have added access keys to all pages that contain major information.

Accessibility is important, if we all implemented it into our sites, we could make the internet a much better place. Unfortunately, not everybody will want to concentrate on such issues. Others simply just are not aware of what difficulties a disabled person faces when trying to view a web site. We hope that at least some of you will become more aware just by reading the contents of this page.

To all you webmasters, site builders and developers out there that may be reading this: - Just by validating your mark up language is one of the major milestones of web accessibility already taken care of. You can then focus more on helping the disabled further by following the Web Accessibility Initiative Guidelines.
