Web accessibility
The University of South Australia is committed to ensuring access to online
materials for people with disabilities. As such we aim to meet the "Level
AA" rating of the
World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Web Content Accessibility
Guidelines 1.0 which covers Priority 1 and Priority 2 guidelines.
Web Content Accessibility
Guidelines
The UniSA corporate website aims to:
- provide a text equivalent for every non-text element, for images,
graphics, animations, applets etc
- ensure all information conveyed with colour is also available without
colour, for example from context or markup
- use style sheets for layout and presentation
- use tables to mark up tabular information, for example data tables
(not for layout purposes)
- ensure pages are accessible when viewed in older browsers, for example
a browser that does not recognise style sheets should be rendered so that
it is meaningful
- use relative rather than absolute unit sizes so that text in a window
can be resized to larger (see
Using this website)
- ensure that moving, blinking or scrolling text can be paused or
stopped
- ensure that pages are usable when scripts, applets, or other
programmatic objects are turned off or not supported
- provide clear navigation mechanisms.
For more detailed information please see the UniSA
Web Authoring Guide for authors maintaining sub-sites within the UniSA
website and developing online material.
