Designing web pages to work across a number of
platforms and web browsers, all of which present HTML and CSS code
slightly differently, can be quite a challenge. Below we set out
some of the criteria we have used in designing this site, in the
hope that it will enable you to optimise your system and get the
most from your visit.
BROWSERS:
We have optimised this site for Version 6 browsers, but we have restricted
certain features so that most pages would be compatible with earlier
browser versions. If you would like to upgrade your browser, select
the appropriate link below to download
the latest version.
Internet Explorer Firefox Opera Safari Netscape Navigator
DOWNLOAD TIMES:
Download time can vary, depending on the quality of your link and
the volume of traffic at the time. If picture content is slowing
your download and you could manage without pictures then you might
turn off 'images' in the web content section of your 'preferences'.
Browsers do vary a little in their procedures, so if you're unsure,
consult your user's guide or online Help.
SCREEN DISPLAY:
We have chosen to use a screen size of 600x800 pixels. You should
find acceptable results using a smaller display size, 640x480,
although some extra scroll-bars may appear. You could help this
situation by maximising your web browser window and closing all
menu and button bars you don't require. Reducing your browser's
default font size would also help (found under 'preferences' on
most browsers).
ACESSIBILITY:
For information on how we have tried to make this web site more accessible
to all our visitors please review the accessibility page here.
PLUG-INS:
We have kept the use of third-party plug-ins to a minimum and we
have endeavoured to use only plug-ins commonly shipped with popular
browsers. Below are the plug-ins we recommend you install, to access
special content on this site.
We hope these tips prove useful. Should you have any comments please
