According to all the accessibility information  I've read including in the
WAI docs a spacer image should have the alt attribute but with no
description because it is a meaningless image. So the proper tag is <img
scr="spacer.gif" height="1px" width="50px" alt=" ">

See http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/wai-gl-techniques-19980918.html#spacer-images

I looked at your site and all the alt tags are showing up, except for your
spacer images. You should specify an alt for those to (the name attribute
doesn't cover it.)

A shot in the dark about why they don't show up on your machine. Do you
maybe have a previous version cached? Try reloading to see if it helps.

Isn't bobby the accessibility validator? You won't even make it past the W3C
validator until you get rid of your *margin specs (move to style sheet) and
add a DOCTYPE declaration.

Not that you asked, but in general, the page looks good.
