Hi Dave, > Funny, the page seems updated since I saw it last. It now says: > > A conformance checker must report the lack of a text alternative as an error. The image element <img> is only valid when at least one of the following is true. The > • alt attribute is present (empty or non-empty), or > • aria-labelledby attribute present (non-empty only), or > • aria-label attribute is present (non-empty only), or > • <img> element is located within a <figure> element that has a non-empty <figcaption> element, or > • role attribute is present and has a value of "presentation". Yes, I changed the "@"s to the word "attribute" and lower cased "OR" to "or". Does that help? > This still does not mention the "alt-is-missing-and-I-know-it attribute in response to my question below. > I am still concerned that, therefore, we voted on an incomplete proposal. Did we? I'm still waiting to hear a response to your question [1] [2] from the people who attended the face-to-face too.
