Standards compliance

All pages validate as XHTML 1.0 Strict. The templates use Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) which can be read by CSS-P compliant and non-compliant browsers. These pages meet the WCAG Level-A standards, as well as Levels AA and AAA where possible. All pages use structured semantic markup. For example, H1 is used for main page headings, and H2 for subsequent section headings within each web page.

Where Level-AA has not been met

• 13.1 The title attribute has not been used on some links, but wherever possible, links are written to make sense out of context. Many browsers (such as JAWS, Home Page Reader, Lynx, and Opera) can extract the list of links on a page and allow the user to browse the list, separately from the page.

Where Level-AAA has not been met

• 9.5 We have chosen not to employ access keys. Research suggests that these sometimes conflict with shortcut keys used by assistive technologies
• 13.6 Grouping related links has not been followed (for example, by using the 'MAP' attribute)
