OK - thanks for that.  It might be better then to place under the photos, a
numbered list of what the photos are?  This could be better anyway.

To get a little pedantic,  the alt attribute is not meant to be a tooltip
(although IE treats it that way.  Its supposed to provide an alternate
description of the graphic for assistive technology to read when a non
sighted person can't see the actual graphic.

IE renders alt text as a tooltip.  Firefox does not.  Its not something you
have control over.

Subject: Alt tag

Hi there

 

I'm trying to get an Alt tag to appear with the main image but having no
luck?  Any suggestions where I need to place the Alt text etc?

 

<img onmouseover="imgMain.src='photos/large/#rsGetDetails.pic1#';"
src="photos/thumbs/#rsGetDetails.pic1#" class="border" name="thumbnail1"
border="0" width="50" height="50" alt="#rsGetDetails.pic1_alttext#" />

 

Basically I have a number of thumbnails where a person can scroll over - I
would just like to place an Alt tag with the main image as well.

 

The site can be viewed at

Thanks in advance.
