Alt text
Thursday, May 19th, 2005Just a couple of links for future references. Both these sites explains the right use of the alt attribute and the difference between alt and title. Often one sees that people forgets or just uses bad alt texts. You also see that people mix-up the different attributes alt and title using alt for title or vice versa.
