FutureInclusion.com develop and manage inclusion policies and practice for commercial and public service organisations. It was thus paramount that their own web site be accessible to all potential visitors.

Compare the two screens. Above is a high visibility option, using white text on a black background for optimum visibility, whilst the image below is a high contrast version. The latter uses dark text on a neutral background, which is considered to be beneficial for partially sighted and colour blind users.

Web site upgrade brief

The site had originally been designed and written by a graphic designer using a standard web site development tool, utilising text content provided by a professional marketing writer. The specialist requirements of this particular site warranted employing the expertise of technical web programmers to bring it fully into line with current accessibility and validation standards.

Working with the existing site and graphics supplied, WyeTec were able to integrate a best-fit compromise whilst maintaining the overall look and feel of the site. The site user is provided with a choice of screen layouts for maximum visual accessibility, and shortcut keys (AccessKeys) were embedded into the web site code to offer the user alternative, mouse-free site navigation via a standard keyboard.

Following implementation of this, the site was also carefully screened and modified to attain W3C compliance for both the web pages themselves and the style sheet used to manage them.
