More flexibility on the Knowledge Portal
Web technologies never stand still. And nor do we. Over the last few months, we have been busy making our Knowledge Portal more user-friendly.
What's new:
Responsive website
Whether you're using a desktop PC or tablet – the subpages of the Knowledge Portal adjust flexibly to the size of your device. This also means that website contents, forms, links and buttons can be used on the go. For the time being, we still recommend our mobile website for Smartphone users.
Navigation
The right-hand page navigation is clearer. The navigation of the other subpages can be displayed or faded out again with a click as and when needed.
Dynamic search tabs on the subpages
Only if you would actually like to search for information resources do the four search tabs for a specific search appear – upon clicking on the search field.
Accessibility for people with disabilities
The entire website navigation can be used comfortably via the keyboard. All page contents, including form fields, links and buttons, are optimised and accessible for screen reader applications. Therefore, these meet mostly the national (foundation external page Access for All) and external page international accessibility standards (WCAG).
And that's not all: in a further step, the website is being optimised for use on Smartphones. Afterwards we will turn our attention to improving the displaying of search results within the Knowledge Portal.
