Look at the HTML source of the page -- I've set a test case as the URL for this bug. On browsers that cause HTML alt= to render as a tooltip, the tooltip won't work when wikitext link= is set, because wikitext link= sets a tooltip on the wrapping <a> which overrides the tooltip on the image itself. However, alt= is supposed to be used for alt text, *not* tooltips. It doesn't even work for tooltips in non-IE browsers, as my link shows (see the last case, which doesn't have the custom "Commons" tooltip in Firefox). Therefore, this bug as stated is wrong: alt= on linked images is working as intended. However, the unnamed parameter (which is different from alt= and is really only kept for backwards compatibility because Brion insisted on it, I wanted to use it only for captions) is supposed to set both alt text and tooltip, and on linked images it doesn't. This is a bug, which has already been filed as bug 16912. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 16912 *** -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
