Customising browsers

Vendors have begun to include the accessibility features of their browsers on their websites. It is useful to alert your users to this information and indicate to them how they can use this information to customise their browsers. This customisation includes controlling fonts, colour, graphics and animations. Providing this information will help users to enhance their web access to meet their particular needs. This site provides an example of how this information can be provided. See Accessibility Information Page.
