Standards compliance

This website complies with WAI Level A accessibility standards as a basic requirement, and Level AA where practicable, as specified in the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 by the W3C Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI).
This website is written using valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional for the content, and valid CSS 2.1 for the layout and design, as validated by the W3C Markup Validation Service and the W3C CSS Validation Service.

Access keys & the tab index

This website does not use access keys because site-mandated access keys may conflict with keys that are already assigned by a user's assistive software.

However, there is an established tab index that is common to all pages:

2	Skip to navigation (hidden except for screen readers)
3	Search input box (only on pages with a search box)
4	Search button (only on pages with a search box)
5	Home
