There is only 1 condition that is conforming, the second bullet is not a condition but a note not to use the title attribute. Suggest: "In such cases, the alt attribute may be omitted, but the following condition must be met: The img element is in a figure element that contains a figcaption element that contains content other than inter-element whitespace, and, ignoring the figcaption element and its descendants, the figure element has no Text node descendants other than inter-element whitespace, and no embedded content descendant other than the img element. Note: Use on the title attribute to provide a caption for an image is currently prohibited as many user agents do not expose the attribute in an accessible manner as required by this specification (e.g. requiring a pointing device such as a mouse to cause a tooltip to apear, which excludes keyboard-only users and touch-only users, such as anyone with a modern phone or tablet)." 81303 1 faulkner.steve 2013-01-12 11:12:36 +0000 proposed resolution in pull request: https://github.com/w3c/html/pull/7 81338 2 robin 2013-01-14 13:04:35 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment.
