Well, if you need to shut up "Bobby", (and strangely, this seems to be a requirement in many places even though it is not a true "validator") then summary="" will do it (at least it used to - I have not tried on the new Watchfire Bobby). I wonder out loud if this really adds anything to the accessibility of a site though...
