What is accessibility?

Accessibility means access to information with no restriction whatsoever for reasons of disability.
There are many people who access the information on websites through circumstances that may be very different to our own. We are referring to people who may have impaired hearing, eyesight or mobility. They may be people with reading or learning difficulties; or with problems for using a keyboard and mouse. We also extend this group to include those people who have a text-only display, a small screen, a limited connection... In short, we are talking about users with technological limitations.
Such groups account for between 10 and 20% of the population, and for them today browsing through a website is generally either very difficult or in some cases actually impossible.

With a view to resolving all these problems, tools and instruments (such has voice browsers and screen enlargers) have been introduced that enable computers to be adapted to correctly interpret the different content.



Obeki's work with disabled people

For the purpose of making our website available to the maximum possible number of users, Obeki has sought to design a website that is accessible to each and every one of our customers and friends, regardless of any disability they might have. Basically, we want to help reduce obstacles as well as any social discrimination created by the change caused by new technologies.
Accordingly, we have undertaken this project by applying the Accessibility Guidelines or General Principles of Accessible Design established by the WAI (Web Accessibility Initiative) Working Party set up by the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium).

Likewise, we have used standard formats introduced by the W3C and we have followed the Accessibility Guidelines created by the WAI, thereby complying with level AA.

Standards

The languages used for the contents and its structure are XHTML 1.0 and ASP 2.0, and to arrange the elements and to present them in a graphical way has been in use Leaves of Styles in Waterfall (CSS). All the pages have been validated as XHTML 1.0 and CSS 2.0.



Web browsing

Structure

In order to make browsing easier for our users, all the pages have a similar structure based on the following: A header, a main browser menu, a body or area developing the section, and a footer or lower bar that "closes" the page.


The header

The header contains:
- Language selector.
- Links to accessibility sections, contact and site map.
All the pages on the website, except for the home page, have been provided with two links using legible code designed for people with visual impairment. These two links provide direct access to the main browser menu or access to the development of that section's specific content. The idea is to avoid making those people who use reading software have to read all the elements that are repeated on each page until they reach either the main menu or the page content.

The main browser menu

The main browser menu, located on the left-hand side of the webpage, links and directs the user to the main options. In order to make the webpage easier to use and browse, we have arranged all the options in a visible manner, which makes it easier for users to select and go to the option they choose on the website.

The body or development

We use the body or development to refer to the central part of the webpage, which is the area that includes and develops the texts explaining each one of the options defined in the menu. In our own particular case, this area is presided over by a kind of header featuring the Obeki logo, where the user is redirected to the website's home page.

The footer

The lower bar or footer closes the webpage. This is why it contains such elements as the copyright and legal disclaimer.

However, and as we have done in the header, we have also included a link to the main browser menu, to make access easier for those users with reading software.

Hot keys

We have provided hot keys that help browsing


Hot keys in different systems

To operate these hot keys on systems based on Microsoft Windows, use the combination of ALT + Hot key (in Internet Explorer 4.0, Netscape, Mozilla Firebird) or ALT + Hot key + ENTER (Internet Explorer 5 or higher)

To activate the hot keys in Opera: Caps key + Esc.

With systems based on the Mac OS, use the combination CONTROL + Hot key.

Links and images.

The vast majority of the links on this website contain a description in the form of the title attribute. Likewise, all the images contain a brief description in the form of the alt attribute.

Visual design

This website uses cascading style sheets (CSS) and layers for visually formatting the information. The content has been separated from the presentation, ensuring both access and the correct display of the information under different environments. Relative font sizes have been used, which can be configured by users and the text options in their browsers. We have verified the correct display of this website on different versions of the main browsers (Internet Explorer 5.5 and higher, Mozilla and Opera), platforms, equipment and configurations.
