Accessibility

World Heritage Ireland are committed to providing information and services, which are fully accessible to all of our customers. The aim with the website is to make it as accessible as possible regardless of the ability or disability of the user. Good design improves access for all users. It has been designed in accordance with the WC3 Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. It conforms to most of the priority 1, 2 and 3 checkpoints subject to some clarifications as outlined below.

Website Design
The website was developed using XHTML and Cascading Style Sheets, which are screen reader friendly and more accessible. It has been designed in a manner that avoids clutter and provides a consistent navigation style. The use of colour, breadcrumbs and links to the main thematic areas on each page allows for easier navigation.

The website content is separated from the presentational elements, which makes it available to visitors using technologies such as screen readers.

The website has been designed around regional areas for ease of navigation.

Images
All images have ALT descriptions unless they are decorative in which case they have null values.

The website is coded to Transitional XHTML standards. All pages have been verified using the W3 Organisations validator. In addition sample pages are checked using the following browsers:

PC

    * Internet Explorer 5.5 up to .0
    * Firefox 1.0.1 and up
