Help with how to use this site

Moving between different areas on this website is primarily done through the horizonal navigation tabs at the top of the page, which is divided into the five main areas and a Home tab. These provide access to further links by way of a dropdown menu that appears when you put your mouse on the tab. You can navigate to any of the sub-categories within the main tab areas by dragging you mouse to highlight the area of interest and then clicking once. You will also find links to the subsections that appear in the dropdown on the left side of your screen when you click on the tab.

You will know which area of the site you are on by looking at either the breadcrumb navigation located at the top left of each page, under the primary horizontal navigation bar, or by looking at the menu on the left hand side of the page. The breadcrumb shows your current location within the website and is indicated by a list of pages above the current page in the hierarchy, up to the home page.

Each of the categories above the current page is usually a link to the corresponding category page.

If you can't find what you are looking for use the search box at the top of every page. Just enter your query terms and click the word Search on the right. If you still cannot find what you are looking for, visit the contact page to send us your query.

Some areas of the MAFBNZ website are password protected. If you try to access one of these areas you will be required to enter a username and password. If you do not have a username and password, click on the cancel button when asked to enter them. You may need to contact an appropriate MAFBNZ business group to request password access.

Visual design

  • This site uses cascading style sheets for visual layout.
  • This site uses only relative font sizes, compatible with the user-specified "text size" option in visual browsers. You can adjust the size of the font through your browser's menu - in Internet Explorer, click on the 'View' button, then choose 'Text size' from the menu options and adjust accordingly.
  • If your browser or browsing device does not support style sheets at all, the content of each page is still readable.

Printing

  • This site uses a print stylesheet for printing purposes. This allows a page to be printed straight from the browser in a "print-friendly" manner.
  • Only the main content from the page will be printed — the top banner and navigation links will not.
