Making Data More Accessible »

Fix this web site width to make information more easily available.

Why Is This Idea Important?: Category 1, idea 1 is: "Making Data More Accessible (279)". Showing only a fraction of a sentence at a time and requiring constant mouse scrolling to read every line is an impediment to accessibility.

Hi,

I use Firefox, not evilnet so please test on it. These pages are hard wired at 3 feet across with tiny fonts. When I make the fonts readable, I have to scroll 3 times to read one line. This is not efficient. On a small monitor, this would pose a severe usability restraint.

In the page rendering html, use '%' as the size units to adjust the content to the page. The 'px' unit assumes you know how large people's monitors and windows are and gives you an absolute number of pixels. It seems to be set to ~5000 pixels and nobody has a monitor that big.

  1. I am finding this website easy to use and read. The idea might be a good one, but I find this site working well right now. It is one of the better sites - government or commercial I have used in terms of visibility and use.
