complete a user task and designing mechanisms for navigating within and between pages.
Providing navigation features and orientation information in pages maximizes
accessibility and usability.
As a part of the Web UI and Accessibility enhancement, the look and feel settings have
been moved out of WebTailor and into Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). By providing more
CSS in WebTailor, institutions can customize and manage self-service products at their
institution.
The benefits of this enhancement are:
• Improved usability for all constituents, including the disabled
• A more flexible user interface with greater ability to customize the “look and feel”
to meet institutional needs
• Greater extensibility for local modifications due to increased use of industry
standards, including W3C guidelines
• An improved foundation for future changes in Web technology
Note
For a detailed listing of the features that have been added to improve
User Interface and Accessibility, refer to the Web General User Guide.

Self-service products are compatible with the following screen readers and voice
recognition devices:
• Screen Readers:
• Henter-Joyce Freedom Scientific JAWS 3.7
• IBM HomePage Reader 3.0
