list,
Following on from my question the other day
about alt and title tags/uses.
I've been dutifully adding the following to my
alt tags [IMG] - but then it occurred to me how
on earth does a screen reader read [IMG]?
I had (I admit) just abbreviated the word image
to IMG as I can see it is short for IMaGe? But
then I thought well *stupid me* of course I can
'see' but does a screen reader see the same
thing or does it read out I-M-G! which in
actual fact is V bad!
As I don't have a screen reader to test this
with I was hoping that some other kindly soul on
thelist would be able to help me out.
I expect I should change all iterations of IMG
to IMAGE.... What do y'all do?
