Accessibility

House Revolution - the online estate agent, have made use of the following features and techniques to ensure that our website is accessible:

  • We provide quick links for speech browsers to skip to key areas of information on every page.
  • We provide a text equivalent for every non-text element. This includes: images, graphical representations of text (including symbols), image map regions, frames, scripts, images used as list bullets, spacers and graphical buttons.
  • We ensure that all information conveyed with colour is also available without colour, for example from context or markup.
  • We ensure that foreground and background colour combinations provide sufficient contrast when viewed by someone having colour deficits or when viewed on a black and white screen.
  • When an appropriate markup language exists, we use markup rather than images to convey information.
  • We use style sheets to control layout and presentation.
  • We use relative rather than absolute units in markup language attribute values and style sheet property values.
  • We use header elements to convey document structure and use them according to specification.
  • We mark up lists and list items properly.
  • We identify the primary natural language of a document.
  • We organise documents so they may be read without style sheets. For example, when an HTML document is rendered without associated style sheets, it is still possible to read the document.
  • We clearly identify the target of each link.
  • We provide metadata to add semantic information to pages and sites.
  • We use navigation mechanisms in a consistent manner.
  • We use the clearest and simplest language appropriate for a site's content.
  • We use a style of presentation that is consistent across pages.
  • For all form elements we ensure the label is properly positioned and implicitly associated.
