508 - Section 508 Accessibility |TOP |
Although this website is not required by law to comply with Federal (Section 508) accessibility guidelines, Coding-Training.com has made significant efforts to insure that this website meets nominal 508 accessibility standards.
This website does not provide TEXT ONLY versions of the HTML pages, nor text versions of the AUDIO content, but nominal testing with TEXT ONLY browsers and screen readers has been done, to insure to the greatest extent possible, that all text can be interpreted from the HTML code. The use of static images has been strictly limited, and those images which are relevant to the understanding of the content have been appropriately tagged with either ALT or TITLE attributes, and/or appropriately captioned.
If you are visually diabled or hearing impared, and you need further assistance with any information on this website, please contact our toll-free number during normal business hours, and one of our staff will be more than happy to assist you. Call: (888-771-1902) NOTE: Our office does not have a TTY device, so all telephone conversations must be by standard voice/audio device.
Viewing Instructions: |TOP |
The Coding-Training website is best viewed at a screen resolution of 800 x 600 pixels or higher. At a lower resolution (such as 640x480 pixels) you will not be able to view the full width of the page without using the scroll bar (left to right). To insure that you are able to view this site as it is designed, you should set your display to a minimum resolution (800 x 600). In Windows95 (or higher) use the following procedure:
- Click on the Start Button and select the Settings option, then click on Control Panel.
- Open Display by double clicking on the icon.
- Click on the Settings tab near the top of the window.
- Move the slider in the Desktop Area to 800 x 600. For most systems, your configuration options will list ALL of the available resolutions that your monitor/video card are able to support.
For those with 14-15" monitors, we recommend 800x600. If you have a monitor larger than 15" you may want to go even higher -- to whatever resolution is most confortable. Generally speaking, the higher the resolution, the more you will be able to see on the screen at one time.
Internet Cookies: |TOP |
The Coding-Training website makes use of a number of JavaScript routines, and requires the use of both Session and Persistent Cookies. Users to this website are advised to "ENABLE JAVASCRIPT" and to "ACCEPT COOKIES". NOTE: With respect to cookies, users may choose to accept ONLY those cookies coming from the current (THIS) web site, and to reject or block cookies from third party sites.
JAVA -- What is Java? |TOP |
Java is a programming language originally developed by Sun Microsystems. Java allows programmers to create two types of executable programs which your web browser and computer will "run". The two types are JavaScript and JavaApplet. From the users standpoint, the difference between the Script and Applet is below the surface (i.e., the user cannot tell the difference when the program is running).
What Java does, is to allow more feature-rich content and function within a web site. Web pages (which are typically written in plain text HTML) are not able to provide a great deal of function, so Java is typically used to supplement the HTML capabilities.
FRAMES - What are Frames? |TOP |
Frames refers to "HTML Frames" in this instance. Although somewhat similar to Java in that they allow some additional funtionallity, it is important to understand that HTML FRAMES are not "programs". HTML FRAMES can provide more efficient navigational benefits to be added to some HTML pages, by breaking up redundant and non-redundant content into multiple parts (multiple pages). As with Java, the user is typically unaware that frames are being used, unless the user has disabled them and/or has setup a notification in his/her browser. Web pages using FRAMES typically "look and feel" like any other web page, but in fact, what may appear to be one seamless page, will be "composed" of several different individual pages. FRAME-BASED pages are also somewhat slower to load, because the browser must download/import multiple documents before rendering the overall "view". For this reason, Coding-Training.com only uses FRAMES where their function is absoltely necessary, and there are other instances where SSI has been used instead of FRAMES to achieve similar efficiency.
Printing Instructions: |TOP |
As indicated earlier, this website is designed for optimal viewing at 800x600 resolution. While this resolution provides optimal viewing, it does not necessarily lend itself well for printing on standard 8.5x11" paper. Typically, if the user chooses to print pages from this website, the right-hand margin will be cropped by anywhere from 5-10 characters. This is not a fault of the website, nor of the user's printer or system per se, it is simply due to the fact that the web pages are wider than a standard sheet of paper.
Pop-Ups |TOP |
Although considered by many to be one of THE most annoying elements on the Internet today, Pop-Up windows are not all bad. Originally designed to enhance information presentation within a website, they quickly became an advertiser's dream, and a user's nightmare.
SSI - Server Side Includes |TOP |
Coding-Training.com utilizes SSI for a number of repeating or redundant content elements within the website. Typically, most users do not need to worry about special rules or restrictions for SSI-based content, but the information about its use is being provided here, so that in the event there are any questions, users are aware that SSI is being used.
EXAMPLES: Coding-Training.com uses SSI to build the main navigation menu which you see on the left-hand side of this page, and to build the text portion of the drop-down menu that you see at the top of this page. SSI is also used to insert the "Today's Date" and "Page Last Revised Date" that you see immediately below, and to insert both the main banner graphic and the lower navigation footer.
We hope that this information has been helpful in addressing any accessibility issues you may have with regard to this website. Thank you again for taking the time to review this information and for visiting this website. We look forward to serving you.
