Accessibility

What is digital accessibility?

According to Tim Berners-Lee (director of W3C and inventor of the World Wide Web), accessibility means making the web and its services available to all individuals, regardless of their hardware or software, network infrastructure, mother tongue, culture, geographical location or physical or mental aptitudes.

A website is “accessible” when anyone can navigate it without difficulty using a browser and/or an assistive tool.

Compliance with standards

The HTML code complies with the HTML5 specification. It is tested using the W3C HTML validator.

If, despite our best efforts, any errors are detected following validation, please let us know.

Structure and layout

The layout of the site is separated from its content by the use of style sheets. The use of CSS positioning properties, by completely separating presentation and content, enables documents to retain a consistent order outside CSS: title, menus, content, etc.

Breadcrumbs

Le fil d’Ariane vous indique le chemin de navigation que vous avez emprunté en situant la page affichée à l’écran et vous permet de remonter dans l’arborescence.

Texte or page size adjustment

In order to allow users to modify the layout of the site, and especially the size of the characters displayed, the page layout is based on the use of relative units. In this way, text and/or page size can be enlarged:

  • With most browsers: Ctrl + mouse wheel
  • or Ctrl+ to increase font size and Ctrl- to decrease it.

On versions prior to Internet Explorer 7: in the menu bar at the top of the browser, go to View> Text size and choose the size you prefer.

Printable version

On all browsers, the “Print” function can also be found in the menu bar at the top of the browser, under File > Print.

When you print a page, all the site’s navigation elements will be hidden so that you can print only the useful content of your information. Please consider your environmental responsibility before printing.

In the menu bar at the top of your browser :

  • Internet Explorer: Favorites > Add to Favorites
