Overall Linking Strategies
The following include links made to internal sources (i.e., within the UN system) unless otherwise noted. External linking will utilize selections already present in the current web pages and newer links identified during the course of Phase 1(b).
These links are provided in the original site and administered by DESA in compliance with DPI guidelines.
Text Only (added): This link is added to most graphics-intensive pages to (a) provide low-graphics path for those who have slower Internet connections, and (b) provide alternative path for sight-impaired users who rely on custom font sizes in their browsers. This may also be used by users who are using Braille or Read-back systems, although all pages will also be able to provide alternative text. The Text-Only page will, in most cases, return to locations with graphics if the graphics are fast-loading (e.g. 2 KB less in size).
