Layout

This site uses cascading style sheets for visual layout. Users can change the style sheets in their browsers to make viewing easier for their individual requirements. All pages on this site use structured semantic markup. This 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 is still readable.
