I tend to keep all graphics in a specific directory - turning off the read permission of the directory is a good way of seeing all the alt attributes in Mozilla, throughout a site. To maintain corporate fonts, logos, etc., I create company names in their appropriate font as graphics, duplicating the image text in the alt atribute. When these are inserted into h1 elements (since they are page headers), things look amazingly 'normal' and clean in Mozilla once the images are blocked. I find this a very handy way of getting a feel for the site in a graphic-free environment. Cheers M -- Matthew Smith IT Consultant - KBC, South Australia http://www.kbc.net.au
