Accessibility Statement
The Department of Religious Education is committed to making sure that our website can be seen by as many people as possible.
Text Size
This site uses only relative font sizes and therefore is compatible with the user-specified text size option in visual browsers. The text size can be changed in Internet Explorer through the View > Text Size menu. And in Mozilla/Netscape, through the View > Text Zoom menu.
Alt text
All images that are used to illustrate content include the alt attribute to provide descriptive text alternatives. Images that have a decorative function have an 'empty' alt attribute.
Link Titles
A title attribute has been added to links which describe the link in greater detail. If the text of the link provides a clear explanation of the 'target' then the title attribute has not been used.
Javascript
The site does not rely on client-side scripting. There are no popup windows, or client-side form validation. In fact all the javascript functions from the previous incarnation of this site have been replaced with PHP.
Web Standards
This site uses cascading style sheets for visual layout and is built to W3C standards. The XHTML and CSS is valid and the site, according to our judgement of the guidelines, complies with the WAI level 3 accessibility guidelines.
Browser Compatibility
We test all our sites in all modern browsers on Windows, MacOS and Linux. All pages on this site use structured semantic markup which means that if your browser or browsing device does not support stylesheets, the content of each page is still readable and is presented in a logical order.
