Yup, that's what the "alt" attribute of the img tag is made for ;)

Why didn't you just put a <a ...><img ></a> code in the cell ? That would be much cleaner, wouldn't it ? Actually no. Well, considering that ownCloud is (probably) not supposed to be indexed by search engines and scraped for content it doesn't matter that much but still. Let me explain; Semantics. That arrow is a visual representation for a menu. It's a design element that doesn't have any definite meaning - it can be interpreted differently depending on the observer. From the semantic point of view you shouldn't use "meaningless" elements in your markup. HTML is a descriptive language used to define the meaning of content and not their visual representation. Therefore a text such as "Options" makes way more sense because it gives actual meaning to that arrow. This reasoning is very abstract and applies mainly to public websites. Crawlers, scrapers, search engine spiders and other mechanical readers can understand the content of such sites. Still, what if there's a blind user using a screen reader? Screen readers don't understand graphics. _______________________________________________ Owncloud mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/owncloud
