Bug ID: 20404
Summary: more non conforming uses of title attribute in example
code
Classification: Unclassified
Product: HTML WG
Version: unspecified
Hardware: PC
OS: Windows NT
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: CR HTML5 spec
Assignee: robin@w3.org
Reporter: faulkner.steve@gmail.com
QA Contact: public-html-bugzilla@w3.org
The following examples in the spec include non conforming usesof the title
attribute:
"
Sometimes the entire point of the image is that a textual description is not
available, and the user is to provide the description. For instance, the point
of a CAPTCHA image is to see if the user can literally read the graphic. Here
is one way to mark up a CAPTCHA (note the title attribute):
<p><label>What does this image say?
<img src="captcha.cgi?id=8934" title="CAPTCHA">
<input type=text name=captcha></label>
(If you cannot see the image, you can use an <a
href="?audio">audio</a> test instead.)</p>
Another example would be software that displays images and asks for alternative
text precisely for the purpose of then writing a page with correct alternative
text. Such a page could have a table of images, like this:
<table>
<thead>
<tr> <th> Image <th> Description
<tbody>
<tr>
<td> <img src="2421.png" title="Image 640 by 100, filename 'banner.gif'">
<td> <input name="alt2421">
<tr>
<td> <img src="2422.png" title="Image 200 by 480, filename 'ad3.gif'">
<td> <input name="alt2422">
</table>
Notice that even in this example, as much useful information as possible is
still included in the title attribute.
"
Suggest:
For the captcha example replace the current text and example code with the text
and example code from:
http://dev.w3.org/html5/alt-techniques/#sec13
for the second example suggest:
"Another example would be software that displays images and asks for

<thead>
<tr> <th> Image <th> Description

<td> <figure>
<img src="2421.png">
<figcaption>Image 640 by 100, filename 'banner.gif'</figcaption>
</figure>
<td> <input name="alt2421">
<tr>
<td> <figure>
<img src="2422.png">
<figcaption>Image 200 by 480, filename 'ad3.gif'</figcaption>
</figure>
<td> <input name="alt2422">
</table>
Notice that even in this example, as much useful information as possible is
still included in the ficaption element."
