It leads to pointless alt="" on images that have no reasonable text equivalent, just to satisfy conformance checkers. And that is actively harmful, because AT can't tell the difference between a semantically null image and a semantically meaningful image with no text alternative." - Maciej Stachowiak http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2007Jun/0391.html Calling the alt attribute a "cargo cult talisman" regarding the email exception: http://lists.whatwg.org/pipermail/whatwg-whatwg.org/2007-April/010837.html -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
