Michelson Diagnostics is committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of technology or ability.
We are actively working to increase the accessibility and usability of our website and in doing so adhere to many of the available standards and guidelines.
Web Accessibility Initiative
This website endeavours to conform to level Double-A of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0.
These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities. Conformance with these guidelines will help make the web more user friendly for all people.
W3C Standards
This site has been built using code compliant with W3C standards for XHTML and CSS. The site displays correctly in current browsers and using standards compliant XHTML/CSS code means any future browsers will also display it correctly.
Access Keys
Access keys have been included to assist users with disabilities when navigating their way through the website. Access keys are keyboard shortcuts providing quick and easy access to common pages without the need to use a mouse.
Unfortunately, different browsers use access keys in different ways. In general you need to hold down a key or two, and then press the access key you want.
