@andy "AltText" is the wrong description. If you want to give a description of a picture, this text is stored the HTML tag "title". The text in the tag "alt" is displayed when the picture itself is missing.
Why everybody name descriptions "AltText" - it's wrong. @grin

@andy I've never understood why everyone uses the wrong terms. @grin

@andy What is "true AltText"?

@heluecht "Alt" und "Title" ar different things. The picture description is only displayed in the browser, when it is stored in the "title" tag in the <img> HTML code. @andy @grin

@heluecht Yes yes, that's all clear. But why is everyone using the wrong terms? @andy @grin

@andy Oh, HTML really isn't that difficult.

@grin You'll just have to ask the author. @helpers @andy @heluecht @daj
