Accessibility information
I've audited this site against the
WAI
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines,
and in my estimation it meets the requirements of Double-A conformance.
This applies to all areas of the site except for parts of the
scripts and
games sections -
many of these are not fully accessible, by their nature.
But developing for accessibility involves many judgement calls, and I value practical feedback - if you have any problems with the site, or find any areas which are difficult or impossible to access or use, please do let me know.
Page semantics
All the content at brothercake is properly structured into headings,
paragraphs and other meaningful HTML
semantics. If your browser or reader has a headings-reading mode
or equivalent, you
can use this to skip through the major sections of any page.
Groups of related links are generally organised into lists.
Stylesheet switcher
All the styling in the main site uses Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), which you can override or replace with your own.
The site also features a stylesheet switcher that allows you to choose from a variety of design and access-oriented stylesheets - this includes several hi-contrast schemes, and an option to apply no fonts or colors at all while preserving the physical layout.
Text size
If you find that the text is too small for you to read, you can change it to a size you're more comfortable with:
-
In Opera, use the
Zoom
selector. -
In Firefox and other Mozilla browsers,
use the
View - Increase Text Size
option. -
In Safari, use the
View - Make Text Bigger
option. -
In Macintosh
Internet Explorer, and
Netscape 6 and 7, use the
View - Text Zoom
menu. -
In Windows Internet Explorer (including Pocket
IE), use the
View - Text Size
menu.
If you use a wheel-mouse, you may be able to change the text size by holding down the Control or Command key and turning the wheel. In some browsers you can change the text size using Control or Command and the + and - keys.
