Visual design

  1. The Birddog site uses cascading stylesheets for visual layout.
  2. If your browser or browsing device does not support stylesheets at all, the content of each page is still readable.

The Birddog site has been developed to allow users to adjust the text size to a level with which they are comfortable using their browser’s built-in text-size controls. To adjust text-size in your browser:

  • In Internet Explorer v7+: Click Page, then navigate to Text Size and choose your desired text-size
  • In Mozilla Firefox: Either
    • Click View, then navigate to Text Size and choose your desired text-size, or
    • Hit CTRL + + to increase text size, and CTRL + – to decrease text-size

Links

  1. The text of most links already fully describes the target; for those that do not, a title attribute which describes the link in greater detail will be available.
  2. Links are written to make sense out of context.
