Hi all

I recently stumbled across a site (sorry lost the reference now) that
made reference to the fact that an asterisk should be used inside an ALT
attribute (eg alt="*") when the image is only used for presentation
purposes.

Apparantly this is helpful for screen readers.

Can anyone reaffirm this?

I thought that an empty ALT attribute was preferrable.

A search on Google seems to confirm the confusion.

Thanks
Sarah :)
