Re: No Alt-text on my images


/ Claus Rasmussen <claus@arsdigita.com> was heard to say:
| Is there a reason that this does not result in any ALT text when I parse to
| HTML:
| 
| <mediaobject>
|   <imageobject>
|     <imagedata fileref="../images/rp-flow.gif" format="GIF" align="center"/>
|   </imageobject>
|   <textobject>
|     <para>This is an image of the flow in the Request Processor</para>
|   </textobject>
| </mediaobject>

Yes. If you want alt-text, change the <para> to <phrase> in <textobject>.
If textobject contains para or other block-level elements, the stylesheets
assume that it's inappropriate for an alt attribute.
