> Why e.g. is there no ALT in the OBJECT element? > We do need it there to don't we? Dave answered this one yesterday: The OBJECT element doesn't include an alt attribute since the content of the OBJECT element is used as the fallback. This allows for rich text descriptions to be given in place including regular HTML elements such as paragraphs, lists and hypertext links. The title attribute can be used for a one-liner description of the OBJECT and would normally be used on gui's as a tooltip for the object.
