I would be pleased to receive comments on what I say at http://www.it.uc3m.es/vlc/wai/wcag20formal.html#imagelink : WCAG 2.0 says: "When an image is used as the content of a link, specify a text alternative for the image. The text alternative should describe the function of the link." I completely disagree!!! The link's title (attribute) is for that purpose. The image's alt is just for describing the image, not for describing the function of the link. Example: This example shows the difference between img/@alt and a/@title. <a href="http://validator.w3.org/check/referer" title="Validate this page"> <img class="logow3c" src="http://validator.w3.org/images/vxhtml-basic10.gif" alt="XHTML Basic 1.0 icon" /></a> Vicente Luque Centeno Dep.
