It's probably a good idea to ask the owner of the web site for some
examples of the browsers they're referring to. Perhaps there are
regular visitors to the web site who have specific needs you need to
aware of.
Lynx <http://lynx.browser.org/> is an example of a text-based browser.
Opera <http://www.opera.com/> can also emulate a text browser.

I suggest you format the body for the HTML documents correctly, using
<h1>, <h2>, etc for headings, and Unordered Lists <ul> for the menu. And
then use CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) to handle positioning, colour,
etc.
I note that someone else has suggested you go for a tabled based layout,
but that's probably not a good idea, especially as there seems to be
specific usability requirements.
Cross-posted to alt.html, which seems to be a more appropriate
newsgroup.
