Alternate text

[Sal Iaccarino]

I have created a web page in FrontPage 2003 with a number of photo's. Have
uploaded to my ISP area. When I view the site online and hover the cursor
over an image, I expect to see the alternate text. However, nothing happens.
I am positive this worked sometime back. I have tried in both MSIE 6.0 and
FireFox.

Anyone know what is wrong or needs to be corrected?

For images, alternate text will display in a browser when picture files
are missing (i.e, image files are missig or image view disabled--text
only)

IE will (incorrectly) display alternate text on mouseover. Firefox will
correctly display title text (any element) on mouse over. IE will
correctly display the title text on mouseover if the title atribute is
present.

Here's the an image tag in HTML.

<img src="somefile.gif" alt="some text" title="some title text">
