Re: alt text

Scripsit Neredbojias:

The last several months I've been trying to include more reasonable
alt text in my images to improve accessibility.

OK.

The other day I
uploaded a new page and forgot to upload the matching folder
containing the page's images. Here's what I got in Firefox

It's a blurred picture of something. What is the point?

Don't they know how to do it right,

Who's "they" and what's "it"?

If you're criticizing a browser for doing something wrong, as I suspect, please specify the browser in detail (including version), the specific URL(s) you tested, and a verbal explanation of what you regard as wrong.
