Your proposal makes sense, but I'm not sure about the labelledby
relationship between the container div and the image. I would have
thought that the image would have the labelledby attribute,
referencing the caption in the paragraph that owns the image, and that
there should also be a describedby attribute to the paragraph. So the
resulting structure would be (content trimmed):
<div class="caption-and-img">
<p aaa:owns="img1" id="d1">
<strong id="c1">Caption ...</strong>: describes ...
</p>
<p>
<img id="img1"
aaa:labelledby="c1"
aaa:describedby="d1"
alt="The contract model with accessibility API's"
src="accessibleelement.png"/>
</p>
<p>
For more information see ...
</p>
</div>
Best regards,
Gez
