Philip Taylor 2008-05-03 21.50: > (My interpretation of the current HTML5 spec is that alt="External > image" would be non-conforming, because it does not serve as a > substitute for the image - it serves only as a marker for the image > and an indicator that the image is 'external'. The spec should not be > so strict in what the alt text must be, else it force sites like this > to compromise their user experience in order to achieve conformance.) Amen. -- leif halvard silli
