Re: [WSG] Google Image changes: inaccesssibility for all
Nick Fitzsimons wrote: Hi, As Barney Carroll mentioned in a post to the group earlier today, Google Images has changed so that information such as image dimensions and domain is only displayed when mousing over an image. My tests in Firefox show that using the tab key to give focus to an image doesn't reveal the hidden information, making that information inaccessible to users who don't use a mouse or similar pointing device. The majority of Google is inaccessible in some shape or form. What's one more piece going to do? *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***

In the interest of keeping structure from content I have recently been using background images wherever possible to keep my markup as clean as possible but I have been reading an article on the importance of the alt text for SEO. Is there a definitive answer? I want the best search engine rankings but I also want clean markup. Robin, there is no definitive answer, but there are many image-replacement techniques. http://www.mezzoblue.com/tests/revised-image-replacement/ http://www.mikeindustries.com/blog/archive/2004/08/sifr *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***

[WSG] proper image-content-image markup
Hi All, I have a template from a designer for a background image to go behind the H2 category tags on a new layout. It has distinct fixed left, center repeating (depending on text length), and fixed right portions to it. (something like this: ==text===Y) Which is the more proper way to mark this up? h2span/spanFoo1span/span/h2 vs. divdiv/divh2Foo2/h2div/div/div vs divspan/spanh2Foo3/h2span/span/div Or, are the better options that don't use useless empty tags that hold nothing more than a style attribute for the background image? The page markup looks like this: div id=mainbody h2Title/h2 div id=content /div So, there's no other div's hanging around the h2 that I can shove this into. Appreciate the suggestions, thanks! -Brian ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **
[WSG] background not showing in ie
Hi guys, I'm working on a client site (http://tinyurl.com/jz3y4) and I've added a simple gradient to the background (postgrad.gif) of my main text area. It shows fine in firefox, but it's not coming up in IE. I don't want to link tot he actual url as i don't want this showing in google :) So please bear with me and dig a little for the css. It's based off word press, so i'm sure you guys can find it ok :) Can someone take a look and give me a pointer?

Hi Rob, The large text toggle has some issues Some border and height elements are set in fixed pixel height, so when the text is expanded, it overlaps the boxes. Other than that, I can see everything fine, even without going to the high contrast mode (In fact, I found that much more difficult to read than the normal version) I'm looking for some volunteers to pilot my questionnaire available at www.roboneill.co.uk/research.htm http://www.roboneill.co.uk/research.htm whose eventual audience will be the visually impaired. I'm looking for feedback to include personal opinions about: 1. the wording of questions 2. the ordering of questions 3. the suitability of questions 4. if instructions are adequate. I know next to nothing about any of that, so I don't think I'm much use there. It flows well, but I couldn't tell you if it was true or not. :D ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **
