RE/
but why are you
setting it for linked images? How do you expect users with voice or text
browsers to use the links when you haven't provided any alternate text?
Validator.w3 seems to require it. In spite of much expert advice to the
contrary, I'm still using a frame for the index. Reason: what I was able to
read about why frames are evil mostly revolved around their defeating the nature
of the web by compromising the bookmarkability of pages. In this case, the
pages are imprisoned in a CD that people are reading in their local drive - so
those reasons didn't seem to apply.
Besides, I'm going on a wing and a prayer here and Frames are working.... Once I
climb the learning curve a little more, I'll look for alternative ways to
present a scrolling list of hundreds of links without having the top of the page
disappear from view...but for now....
I don't need an 'alt' address because the whole thing is on a CD - so the images
are guaranteed to be there.
There are hundreds of thumbnail images, that comprise a list of pictures that
can be viewed.
A few:
