The problem Alan noted with the QualsCrossBoundaries interface has been fixed...

By the way, it's not just that there were 3 rows of content in scottish level 8... web content has to 'flow' in order to be accessible to the visually impaired; so for instance the QualsCrossBoundaries interface tries to be fairly robust against the user massively increasing the text size ( unlike the pdf file, the text has to be able to be made bigger without blowing up the entire layout )

I've tried the changed interface with pretty big user-increased text and it still has the irish 7 halfway between scottish 8 and 9 :o)

can everyone let me know if this looks OK - especially if there are other problems to see to.

PS - As soon as we get a chance, we have ideas for a much more powerful / adaptable format which we'd like to base further work on...

Relative position of levels is held constant
Relative position of the levels is held constant even if a user is using the largest font size in his or her web browser. We also corrected a typo from the hard copy / pdf versions: Scottish 'Levels 9'.
