NSW Sport and Recreation strives to maintain conformance to W3C's Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). The public pages on this site meet the criteria for AA compliance with WCAG guidelines.
This website is XHTML 1.1 compliant. We aim to make our website content as accessible as possible and follow the guidelines and standards of the W3C. We use cascading style sheets (CSS) to ensure a consistent 'look and feel'. Users of the latest browsers (such as Firefox, IE6, Opera 2, Netscape 6 and Safari) which comply with the W3C guidelines and standards will view content as it was designed. Older browsers (such as Netscape 4 or Internet Explorer 4) will not show the design as it was intended, however, all content will still be available.
Accesskeys are keyboard shortcuts that allow you to jump to specific areas of a website or webpage without using your mouse. We use numeric accesskeys:
The usual way to use accesskeys is to press and hold the "ALT" key plus the "Accesskey" (for Windows/PC) or "CTRL" plus the "Accesskey" (for Mac). Some browsers do work differently.
Version 5 +: "ALT" + "Accesskey" + "Enter". For example, "ALT" + "1" highlights the "Home" link. Select "ENTER" to go to the Homepage
Version 4: "ALT" + "Accesskey". For example, "ALT" + "3" will take you to the contact page.
Version 7 +: "ALT" + "Accesskey".
Netscape 6 and earlier do not support accesskeys.
"ALT"+ "SHIFT" + "Accesskey". For example, "ALT" + "SHIFT" + "4" will place the cursor in the site search box.
Press "SHIFT" + "ESC" then release both keys and select the "Accesskey". For example, "SHIFT" + "ESC", release both keys and select "5" to go to the A-Z Index.
"CTRL" + "Accesskey".
