Hi,

Let's say a web page uses an image such as a checkmark or green/red light to represent a boolean, for instance the availability/status of a product or a program.

What would be the suggested best practice to make this human-readable content machine-readable as well?

I was thinking about the following options:

<img class="status" src="../red.gif" title="available"/>, which is similar to the abbr pattern, but saves the addition of a wrapping abbr element.

or using a CSS-based text by image replacement technique as described in http://www.stopdesign.com/articles/replace_text/ to replace a <span> with an image.

Thanks,

Guillaume
