A link has also been provided at the beginning of each page to provide easy access to this information on accessibility.
Access keys are set for the links to the main parts of the site, see how do I use access keys? for a list of what they are and how to use them.
A site map and site trail (or breadcrumb trail, at the top of each content section) are also provided to making navigation easier and to provide a sense of where you are in the site.
Headings and navigation menus
