I understood the debate as being more about the assertion (which I share) that there is no such thing as a content image that cannot have useful ALT information added (as opopsed to "does not have", which is just describing the status quo of a large number of extant web pages). "Spacer" images, I believe most of us agree, are best marked up (in current syntax) as <img alt="">. Philip TAYLOR
