For instance it would be reasonable to use two images -- a filled star and an unfilled star -- to represent a rating of something:

   <p>Rating: <img src=1><img src=1><img src=1><img src=0><img src=0></p>

You'd want the text version to be:

   Rating: 3/5

There would probably be the argument for more literal interpretations (not that I would automatically subscribe to any of them as correct), such as

Rating: (3 black stars in unicode) (2 white stars in unicode)

Rating: *** (or 3 stars of some sort in unicode) (if the context of the page already established that ratings were on a scale of 5)

Hence:

   <p>Rating: <img src=1 alt=3/5><img src=1 alt><img src=1 alt><img
src=0 alt><img src=0 alt></p>

Or

<p>Rating: <img src=1 alt=&#9733;><img src=1 alt=&#9733;><img src=1 alt=&#9733;><img src=0 alt=&#9734;><img src=0 alt=&#9734;></p>

<p>Rating: <img src=1 alt=*><img src=1 alt=*><img src=1 alt=*><img src=0 alt><img src=0 alt></p>
