Measures taken on this Website

Galway City Council is committed to providing its online services to all its customers in a format that is as accessible as possible.

Navigation Aids

All pages on this site use structured semantic markup. <h1> tags are used for main titles, with <h2> and <h3> tags used for subtitles.

Links

Links to external sites have TITLE attributes, which describe the link and its destination in greater detail, and links are written to make sense out of context.

Images

All content images used in this site include descriptive ALT attributes. Purely decorative graphics include null ALT attributes.

Visual Design

This site uses cascading style sheets (CSS) for visual layout. This means you may customise your Internet browser settings to view the site according to your own preferences.

Relative font sizes have been used, compatible with the user-specified "text size" options in visual browsers. If your browser does not support style sheets the content of each page will still be readable.

Testing

We have endeavoured to construct this site according to the National Disability Authority of Ireland's Guidelines for Web Accessibility, complying with Priority 1 and Priority 2 requirements.

We will contine to develop and test the site and hope to meet Priority 3 requirements in the near future.
