Design
- The navigation comes before the content, so for those using screen readers there is the option to skip the navigation and go straight to the content.
- This website has been built using Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), no tables have been used for layout purposes.
- All text sizes are relative, which means you can resize text using your browser.
- All images have an ALT attribute which provides a alternative to the image if required. Decorative images have an empty ALT attribute or are specified by the style sheet.
This website has been tested and proven to offer full functionality on Windows, Macintosh and Linux with:
- Internet Explorer 5.0, 5.2, 5.5, and 6.0
- FireFox 1.0 and 1.5
- Mozilla 1.6 and 1.7
- Netscape 7.0
- Safari 1.2
- Opera 7.5 and 8.0

This website relies on CSS, which is behaves unpredictably in IE 4 and below and in Netscape 4 and below. It can still be accessed on these browsers but the style sheets are hidden, so the site appears in plain text. Standards compliance
