Accessibility
To assist the vision impaired the homepage in particular of this site has been designed with a built-in magnifier (operates if javascript is enabled):
Zoom back to 100%
Zoom in to 130%
All other pages have a similar function built-into the top menu "Zoom in|out".
Client Side Scripting
Some facilities within this site (e.g. the Shop) require JavaScript (Client side scripting) to be enabled in your browser settings. If you can see an image saying "Products" to the right of this paragraph then JavaScript is enabled in your browser settings. If you can't see an image and you do want to use the web shop then please click here for detailed instructions.
Client side scripting (JavaScript / VBScript / Java) is also used as follows:
To validate all web forms
To provide some of the interactive content
Searching
...
All of the scripts are safe. They do not install any form of software on your system at any time and do not copy personal information from your system. (Client side scripting is very limited in this respect anyway - server side scripting is arguably much more flexible and therefore arguably more of a threat). The scripts on this site are safe and we advise that you add this site to your trusted zone for security purposes.
Scripts are tested within the IE environment (some have also been tested in the AOL / Netscape environments - but by no means all). Because of this we verify that scripting will function within IE and probably other systems.
