Missing alt should not be considered conforming in the presence of figcaptions over 50 words in length
- State:
- CLOSED
- Product:
- HTML 5 spec
- Raised by:
- Sam Ruby
- Opened on:
- 2012-01-16
- Description:
- This issue was raised on behalf of Janina Sajka and https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=13651 :
While clearly arbitrary as to the particular number of
words, fig-captions of greater length are reliably not acceptable alternatives
for missing alt, where fig-captions of but a few words generally are. - Related Actions Items:
