On Web sites I have been asked to view, I suggest putting in the name as alt text, eg alt="Rebecca Cox". The longdesc attribute could be used to describe any detailed inormation (eg age, clothing ...). Otherwise, for further essential information (contact ...) I would suggest placing text near the photo for all to read. + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + http://www.malerecke.de -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: w3c-wai-ig-request@w3.org [mailto:w3c-wai-ig-request@w3.org]Im Auftrag von Rebecca Cox Gesendet: Montag, 5. November 2001 03:55 An: w3c-wai-ig@w3.org Betreff: mugshots I'm making a page about a group of people, with small photos of each person, and wondering if it would be appropriate to try to give as alt text / longdesc, something equivalent to the information you would get about each person, from looking at the photos. ie age, ethnicity, style of dress etc (being polite of course!) What do people think about this? Rebecca
