           Summary: Images accessibility with gallery, alt= doesn't exist
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: Normal
         Component: Images and files
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


Images have an alt= attribute, so one can describe the image and allow
handicaped people to get audio information.

[[Image:Pic.jpg|alt=This is displayed if the image isn't shown! Furthermore, IE
may show this as tooltip.]]

But it is impossibe with <gallery></gallery>.

I hope we could have somethig similar to the following:

<gallery caption="Sample gallery" widths="100px" heights="100px" perrow="6">
Image:Drenthe-Position.png|[[w:Drenthe|Drenthe]], the least crowded
province.|alt=This is displayed if the image isn't shown! Furthermore, IE may
show this as tooltip.
Image:Flevoland-Position.png|alt=This is displayed if the image isn't shown!
Furthermore, IE may show this as tooltip.
</gallery>

I hope someone can fix this bug, I believe it is quite important for the
accessibility.
