BTW, my test was flawed. Safari/WebKit handles this content as it should and is interoperable with the other XHTML UAs. In other words these visual UAs display the image and ignore the contents of the XML element. As others have pointed out, they do not provide the contents of the element as fallback for a bad URL. This forking of fallbacks also accompanies a bigger issues of lossy conversion between serializations. Finally, no tests have been made of any aural and tactile UAs to see if they can discover the fallback content.

To me this should work (at > least as a complement to the other solutions). Take care, Rob
