In Windows 95 I.E. 4 - 5.5‚ Windows 98 I.E. 6‚ Netscape 6 and Mozilla Firefox you can press ALT + an access key.
On a Mac‚ you can press Control + an access key. Pressing ENTER will then take you to that page
The following access keys have been incorporated into each page:
- Home - accesskey i
- Services - accesskey v
- About us - accesskey a

Visual Design
- This site uses cascading style sheets for visual layout‚ meaning greater usability for assistive technology.
- The site uses only relative font sizes‚ compatible with the user-specified “text size” option in visual browsers.
- If your browser or browsing device does not support stylesheets at all‚ the content of each page will “degrade gracefully” so that it is still readable.
Links
Links have title attributes that describe the link in greater detail‚ unless the text of the link already fully describes the target. If you are using a mouse‚ or other pointing device‚ these can be viewed by hovering over the link text.
