Accessibility

This page offers help with using the Together for Africa site.

Access Keys

We have defined access keys on each page as follows:

Access Key 1 Home
Access Key 2 Skip to Navigation
Access Key 3 Sitemap
Access Key 7 Links
Access Key 9 Feedback/Contact: the key opens a mailto: link
Access Key 0 Accessibility Statement

You can use Access Keys to jump to specific links. On Windows machines, you can press Alt + an access (number) key; on Macintosh machines, you can press Ctrl + an access (number) key. In some browsers (eg Mozilla) this will take you straight to the page. In others (eg Internet Explorer) you will need to press Enter. In Opera, you need to press Shift+Esc, and then the number of the key.

Help with Navigation

For text-only and aural browsers, the site is written so that the main content comes first. For these browsers, the first link on each page skips the main text and takes you to the main navigation bar.

There are rel=start, help and contents links in the header section of the code for each page to aid navigation in text-only browsers. The start link takes you to the Home page, the help link to this accessibility page, and the contents link takes you to the Contents page. You can also use these links in Netscape 6 and Mozilla by selecting the View menu, Show/Hide, Site Navigation Bar, Show Only As Needed (or Show Always). In Opera, go to View, Toolbars, Navigation Bar.

Standards

We have written our website in valid XHTML 1.0. You can use the first button below to confirm this. We have used valid CSS to format and present the pages (so no tables). The second link below takes you to a site where you can confirm this for our stylesheet (www.orianasingers.btinternet.co.uk/africa/ustyle.css).

This site uses and

We have used WebXact to check each page against the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines . Each page meets all the automatic checkpoints . We have considered the manual checkpoints, and believe that we`meet them. We may have missed the point, or you may disagree. Please let us know if there is something on this site that makes it difficult for you to use.

Images

We have used images sparingly. Every image has a short description given by both alt and title tags.

Printing

Most printers will print a simpler, black and white version of our pages that we hope you will find more convenient. You can see the stylesheet for this at www.orianasingers.btinternet.co.uk/africa/uprintstyle.css.
