Hi Steve,
Just had a look at the Tesco Direct site and you're right! It's
horrible. I couldn't even get to deliveries. It just said pick a date
but it wasn't linked. Anyway, this is what they have to say about
accessibility on their sites. Get a load of this! I'm sure you'll
agree with every word . . . . not!
4. How the site is built for accessibility
Standards
At Tesco.com we are committed to providing a site that is accessible to
all our customers
and provides the same experience to all. To achieve this we have coded
the site to
achieve level AA of the
W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0
, we work with RNIB and we listen to our customers. The process of
achieving our
goal is ongoing - we continue to work with RNIB reviewing the site,
working out fixes
to issues and advise on how best to use the site.
Layout
The site uses Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) to control all of the
presentation and
layout. Tables are only used to present data.
As a result screen reader users can use the screen reader's navigation
key to get
around the site. If you are listening to the site, menus are grouped
together in
a more logical fashion.
Content
The content has been written and formatted to make it accessible. For
example:
headings highlight sections of text
sentences are short with the meaning at the beginning
links use meaningful text
forms can be navigated using the tab key
Access keys
At present, we have no access key implemented on the Tesco direct website.
Cheers,
Sandra.
