About tweetback.html,
tweetback.html is the Newswest page listing all our twitter and rss news feeds for
normal able users using javascript enabled browsers at 800 by 600
pixel resolution or higher. Once loaded the page runs a client side
JavaScript call to twitter,com to get the widgets that display a dew of the most recent posted tweets. Users who do not enable Javascript do not gain necessary functions to access the twitter data. Rss links do not require javascript but may require a rss capable browser.
Notes:
Self hiding accessibility features at the top left works best in;
IE8, FireFox 3.5, Safari 5, Google Chrome 5 and NS8 Firefox mode. Opera 10.6
Works too with special code to make tabs select links. NS8 IE mode ignores it?
Font size:
Page uses some fixed fonts currently
we recommend;
Browser options to change page zoom, font size, or page styles.
These do generally work in recent browsers.
we do not recommend;
Bookmarklet Tool bar addons.
Those tested so far do not change font size on this page,
Graphic text:
3 graphics, acting as button-links, do display text that may scale poorly
We recommend;
Disabling images for users requiring high level of page magnification.
Disabling images may require special browser settings or add-ons.
Contrast:
Some text is white or yellow over a colored background.
Other text is blue or Black over a colored background. Where contrast is low generally the information lacks importance,
lacks function or provides alternate access.
We recommend;
Browser options to view page with no styles if areas of lower
contrast are a problem for the user.
Pop-ups:
None for this page
Dynamic content;
Page uses 2 twitter widgets that may show existing or new tweets at random times or delays. WAI-ARIA has not been evaluated for these third party widgets.
Some twitter content may be in an alternate format
in the Newswest calendar page
