This could work for recording the information....though ideally - it would be a file that could be viewed on its own, or linked to from another webpage, to display the image only. I have added a "longdesc", title and alt to the image at <http://www.ramin.com.au/linux/review-of-html5.shtml> In Firefox (linux & windows), the title displays, (when no title the alt did not display), the longdesc shows up in the properties, but other than cutting and pasting I can't get to the page easily. However, longdesc doesn't show up in the properties in MSExplorer or Opera. Marghanita -- Marghanita da Cruz http://www.ramin.com.au Phone: (+61)0414 869202
