Helping users browse our site easier
Accessibility
DPT recognises the importance of providing a website that is accessible to all user groups, including the disabled. We have implemented the following accessibility features on this website to make it easier to use for people with disabilities.
Access keys
We have provided a series of keyboard shortcuts intended to help users who have difficulty in using pointing devices such as a mouse.
Most browsers support jumping to specific links by typing keys defined on the website. On Windows, press ALT
+ the relevant access key; on Macintosh, press Control
+ the relevant access key. Then press Enter
to activate the link.
All pages on this website define the following access keys:
- Access key 1 - Home
- Access key 2 - About Us
- Access key 3 - Buy Now
- Access key 4 - News
- Access key 5 - Frequently Asked Questions
- Access key 6 - Dealers Only
- Access key 7 - Links
- Access key 8 - Testimonials
- Access key 9 - Nearest Dealers
- Access key 0 - Contact Us
- Access key G - Savings Calculator
- Access key A - Accessibility
- Access key S - Sitemap
- Access key P - Privacy Statement
- Access key C - Terms & Conditions
- Access key T - Top of Page
These access keys are selected in accordance with the UK Government's e-envoy guidelines.
Standards compliance
Each page on this website complies with all Priority 1 checkpoints from the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. This is a judgement call; many guidelines are intentionally vague and can not be tested automatically.
All pages on this website use structured semantic markup. H1
tags are used for main titles, H2
tags for subtitles. For example, on this page, JAWS users can skip to the next section within the accessibility statement by pressing ALT+INSERT+3
.
Navigation menus are marked up as HTML lists. This ensures that the number of links in the list is read out at the start and it can be skipped easily.
Links
Many links have title
attributes which describe the link in greater detail, unless the text of the link already fully describes the target (such as the headline of an article).
Links are written to make sense out of context.
Images
All content images used in this website include descriptive ALT
attributes. Purely decorative graphics include empty ALT
attributes.
Complex images include LONGDESC
attributes or inline descriptions to explain the significance of each image to non-visual readers.
Visual design
This website uses cascading style sheets for visual layout.
This website 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 is still readable.
Please contact us if you have any questions or feedback regarding the accessibility of this website, or if you experience any difficulty using it.
