User Control

One measure of accessibility is whether a website allows the user to change its presentation, font-style and sizes, background, text and link colours.

Test your favourite website. Check whether it allows you to do the following :

  • change font sizes,
  • change fonts and colours,
  • apply an alternative style sheets,

Also check if the content still makes sense with images turned off.

Here is how you can do this in your browser :
