People who have suspected that you expect "tooltip" behavior may well be right, and in that case this isn't a CSS issue at all. But "rare" suggests to me that you might in fact have a situation where the ALT attribute value is just not visible in the case where it is supposed to appear, namely when the image is not displayed. In that case, you just need to check the background and color properties for the IMG element. By default, the background is transparent and the color is inherited from the parent. So if something just sets background for IMG to black without setting its color, then there will be black text on black background. However, on IE, one normally sees the "broken image" icon anyway. There's a fairly old treatise on such issues: http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/html/altshow.html As usual, a URL of the problem page would be worth a thousand words. -- Yucca, http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/ ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
