The alt attribute
Thursday 22nd September, 2011 - 11:13am with 5 comments
Always put it in for every image. Ensure to put title= as well to ensure it works in all browsers. Also, with HTML emails, put a width and height on all images to ensure that alt text appears. Use inline styling for emails and be 100% sure that alt text appears.
PS. Drop down menus: Don’t use margin. The hover won’t stay…
PPS. Stop calling it a fucking alt tag, it’s an attribute

@Liz, Margins will mean that when you attempt to click on anything in the drop down menu, the menu will subsequently disappear because of the gap between the main button and the menu itself.

@Georgie,
…I’m so going to do it one of these days just to see it in action. I won’t post it publicly, though – unless it’s done as a prank. :P
