ENEA Fusion website meets indications contained in the italian law 4/2004
(Stanca law) and refers to the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) guidelines
for accessibility .
We constantly aim to improve usability, accessibility and updating of this
site increasing its publication quality.
Since June 2006 (beginning with the english version), the site has been constructed to be accessible to a wider range of people than before, including those using assistive technology. Not only, ENEA-Fusion website, built to be accessible, is now easier to use, quicker to download, display better across a wide range of devices and platforms, and is simpler for producers to update and modify.
Below is information about some of the features we have implemented. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any problems accessing our content.
Site is organized in pages groupped in about 10 chapters (addressable from the left-side menu), 1 navigation/service section (first upper row):
Each chapter-page includes sub-menu to address a variable number of
paragraph pages.
Each page cointains a "navigation compass" either indicating its
relative position with respect of the home page (a sort of compas) or allowing
link back to previous pages in the same path; often arguments span more than
one page: in such cases details are shown in lower level pages.
On each page, "accesskeys" allow direct jump to specific sections of this site, pressing contemporarilly button Alt + letter indicated below (on Macintosh button Ctrl +):
All content images used in this site include descriptive ALT attributes. Most images can be seen in bigger format and detailed description just simply clicking on them and without leaving the actual page.
Many links have TITLE attributes which describe the link
in greater detail, unless the text of the link already fully describes the
target (such as the headline of an article).
Links are written to make sense
out of context.
All links to internal pages with no accessibility compliance (ie.:pdf documents),
open a second unique browser window. Those links going out of this site,
are indicated as "external
links" and they all open a third unique browser window.
Provided some support to improve behaviour of vocal browsers. Meanings of abbreviations and acronyms have been carefully specified.
All pages of our site validate the XHTML
1.0 and CSS2 rules;
they work on all platforms (Windows, Linux and Apple) and with either "last-generation"
browsers or old textual ones.
For those browsers not CSS2 standard (like Internet Explorer 4.0, Netscape
4.x. or minor versions), a visual degradation is accepted assuring anyway full
readability.
A special thank go to the "Communication Unit" colleagues of ENEA for their CSS styles and their professional suggestions on accessibility matters.
