We made this site conform to high levels of accessibility

We are committed to making every effort to ensure this website is accessible to people with special needs. However, if as a person with a disability, you encounter difficulties, please do not hesitate to contact us and make us aware of the issue.

Standards compliance and validation

We have worked to make this website adhere to priority 1 guidelines of the W3 Web Content Accessibility Guidelines.

All pages on this site use XHTML 1.0 mark-up, validated using the World Wide Web Consortium's (W3C's) validation service.

Navigation and navigation aids

Primary site navigation is located at the top of each page
Secondary navigation elements are contained in the left-hand column. This navigation is not site-wide and varies from page to page
A link to the home page is available on each page through the orlandovillahire.com logo
Many links have title attributes, which describe the link in greater detail
Links are written so as to make sense out of context
Link text is never duplicated. Two links on the same page with the same text always point to the same address
Some links, mostly to external sites, open a new browser window

Help with finding content

Every page of the site features a Search box at the top. Our search function is there to help you find key information in the site. Links to our policies, including our privacy statement, our terms and conditions, and this accessibility statement, appear at the bottom of every page.

Images

All functional images used in this site include descriptive ALT tags. Purely decorative graphics include a 'null' ALT attribute.

Layout

This site uses a Cascading Style Sheet for visual layout, validated using the World Wide Web Consortium's (W3C's) validation service.

The style sheet is written to display pages correctly in most commonly-used browsers. In browsers which do not support style sheets, the flow of content has been tested to ensure it completely retains its sense.

Our website is most commonly viewed in a screen resolution of 1024x768 pixels and therefore the website has been optimised for this resolution. However, it will work to a high standard in any of the popular screen resolutions.

The site uses relative font sizes. You can resize the text using your browser, this will not disrupt the page layout.

Colour

Foreground and background colours on this site have been selected to provide a proper level of contrast for ease of reading. Where a high-accessibility version of a site tool is available, a link will be found to it within the tool. Throughout the site, colour is never used as a sole means to convey information.

PDF files

We make efforts to minimise the number of files in PDF format on the site. Where they appear, they are accompanied by a link to the Adobe website, where free Adobe Reader software is available or download. This software now includes screen-reading functionality.

Moving images and text

None of our content includes blinking text or images, and nothing on this site will cause your screen to flicker. Animation has been kept to a minimum, and is generally illustrative of content already on the site. Where animation is more than illustrative, transcripts and audio files are provided.

Browser compliance

We collect and constantly monitor user analytics and we ensure our website is thoroughly tested across all popular browsers including Internet Explorer 6, 7 & 8, Firefox, Safari, Opera, and Google Chrome.
