New features

Guide to new website image

In this section, you can find out about the new features that we hope will make your visit easier.  You can learn about the page summaries, the print basket and the text resizing tool.

 

Page summaries

We have introduced quick guides to the top of long pages for people who want information about cancer, but not necessarily in as much detail. At the bottom of each summary is a downloadable and printable PDF which contains all the summaries for that section.  The image below is an example.

Print basket

Printing information from CancerHelp UK had been very slow because you had to print each page individually.  To speed things up, we have introduced the ‘Print basket’, which can be found on every page.

Now you can save pages to be printed by clicking the 'Add this page' button. When you are ready, you can view all the pages saved by clicking the 'View basket' button and print them all in one go.

Changing text size

Some people who use CancerHelp UK have said that the text is too small and others have said it is too big.  What you see depends on how you have your own computer set up.  However, you can now make the text bigger or smaller whenever you need to by using our text resizing tool.  This can be found in the options to the right of every page.

 

Addition of closed trials and those with results

With the new clinical trials search facility, you can now see those trials that have finished recruiting and those that have published results.  The image below shows what the basic search box looks like on our clinical trials page.
