Site structure and navigation
Main sections
The ISCF website is organised into 7 main sections, links to which are arranged in green-shaded boxes across the top of each page. To aid usability this list of links is in the same place on each page.
Sub-sections
Each main section contains up to three levels of sub-sections. Navigation for these subsections is displayed on the left of every page.
Navigational aids
- All pages have a breadcrumb trail at the top that indicates precisely which section of the site you are in.
- All mulitple-page content listings (eg, news) have previous and next links at the bottom of each page to allow you to move back and forth between pages.
- The site is access-key enabled - see Accessibility for a list of access keys.
- All pages include a search box (which can be accessed using access key 4).
Document downloads
Some pages on this site contain attachments (downloadable documents) in non-webpage formats.
Adobe Acrobat (PDF) files
Where possible attached text documents have been converted to PDFs (rather than, for example, Word documents) for ease of access.
PDFs can be read using Adobe's Reader software, which is available free of charge from the Adobe website.
Where a text document is provided in a non-PDF format that is inaccessible to you due to software contraints please contact the ISCF web team and where possible we will provide a PDF version.
Technical problems
Any technical problems should be reported to the ISCF web team.
Members area
The ISCF website members area exists to help staff of the ISCF member organisations gain access to information about ISCF work in progress and meetings documents. If you think you qualify for access to this section please contact the ISCF representative in your organisation to arrange access.
