Reading access
Use keyboard navigation, fitted layouts and reading controls, and tell us where a barrier remains.
Keyboard navigation
The first skip link moves to the main content. Tab moves between links and controls; the focused item has a visible outline. Menus and dialogs provide a close control, and Escape closes the navigation or search dialog so you can return to the page.
Article Contents links move to the chosen section rather than merely displaying its title. On a small screen, Contents opens from the compact side control. A heading should remain visible after the jump, without being hidden beneath the site header.
Display and motion
Day and night themes change the reading colours. Browser zoom and narrower windows should allow text and controls to reflow without a horizontal page scroll. Images use responsive sizes and alternatives, though an alternative description cannot reproduce every visual detail.
The source bar pauses for pointer hover or keyboard focus. A reduced-motion preference replaces its continuous movement with a fitted static set. The theme choice and saved reading selections can be managed through Cookie choices and browser site-data settings.
Reading tools
Speaker mode uses the browser's available speech functions; voices and support vary. Reader mode reduces surrounding material to help focus on the article. Neither feature replaces the text or the need to check a high-stakes claim in context.
Forms identify required information and should preserve input when submission fails. A success message should be announced and visible. If a control appears usable but does nothing, that is an access problem worth reporting.
Report a barrier
These features describe intended behaviour, not a blanket certification across every browser, assistive tool and device. If something fails, name the page, control and action. You may mention the broad browser or access method if it helps explain the problem, without supplying a device identifier.
Do not send medical information to explain an access need. A description of the interaction that blocks you is enough to make the issue concrete.
