Accessible web site design

All pages on this site should validate as HTML 4.01 Transitional.
To ensure the best possible experience for users of a wide range of browsing software, the Connect Midlands website is developed to conform with the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 1.0 (WCAG 1.0) 
The guidelines include:
  • Using meaningful ALT text for informational images
  • Using descriptive hyperlink text whilst warning of link actions
  • Assigning keyboard access keys for navigation (see above)
  • Providing a full sitemap to aid navigation
  • Providing navigational short cuts for users of text only browsers and page readers
  • Using an easy to see web colour scheme
  • Using an easy to read font type and colour
  • Using only relative font sizes (on all body text), compatible with the user-specified "text size" option in visual browsers.
  • Avoiding the use of frames, which are difficult for special browsers to interpret
