For instance, the point of a CAPTCHA image is to see if the user can literally read the graphic. Here is one way to mark up a CAPTCHA (note the title attribute): <p><label>What does this image say? <img src="captcha.cgi?id=8934" title="CAPTCHA"> <input type=text name=captcha></label> (If you cannot see the image, you can use an <a href="?audio">audio</a> test instead.)</p> Another example would be software that displays images and asks for alternative text precisely for the purpose of then writing a page with correct alternative text. Such a page could have a table of images, like this: <table> <thead> <tr> <th> Image <th> Description <tbody> <tr> <td> <img src="2421.png" title="Image 640 by 100, filename 'banner.gif'"> <td> <input name="alt2421"> <tr> <td> <img src="2422.png" title="Image 200 by 480, filename 'ad3.gif'"> <td> <input name="alt2422"> </table> Notice that even in this example, as much useful information as possible is still included in the title attribute. " Suggest: For the captcha example replace the current text and example code with the text and example code from: http://dev.w3.org/html5/alt-techniques/#sec13 for the second example suggest: "Another example would be software that displays images and asks for alternative text precisely for the purpose of then writing a page with correct alternative text. Such a page could have a table of images, like this: <table> <thead> <tr> <th> Image <th> Description <tbody> <tr> <td> <figure> <img src="2421.png"> <figcaption>Image 640 by 100, filename 'banner.gif'</figcaption> </figure> <td> <input name="alt2421"> <tr> <td> <figure> <img src="2422.png"> <figcaption>Image 200 by 480, filename 'ad3.gif'</figcaption> </figure> <td> <input name="alt2422"> </table> Notice that even in this example, as much useful information as possible is still included in the ficaption element." 83690 1 faulkner.steve 2013-02-25 23:47:09 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment.
