To ensure the accessibility of my HTML, I want to provide ALT tags for my
imageobjects. I've looked through the archives, and the advice I keep
seeing is "use the textobject" tag. Unfortunately, when I use something
like this:
<mediaobject>
<imageobject>
<imagedata fileref= "picture.png">
</imageobject>
<textobject>
<para>Description of picture<para>
</textobject>
</mediaobject>
the resulting HTML page contains the image, followed by a link labeled
'[D]', which connects to a separate HTML page containing the phrase
"Description of the picture."
I'm processing XSL 1.55.0 with the latest xsltproc.
Am I missing something obvious, or do I need to start writing a new
customization to turn the <textobject> into an actual ALT tag?
