107954 - Mouseover info from images

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 74241

(Core :: XUL, enhancement)

Description

[Hakon]

I wan't an option that displays the <IMG ALT> info, when mouseover the image.
However, I do not want the <A ALT> info. Could this be a checkbox option?

showing the alt text on mouseover is wrong acording to bug 74241
 "[RFE] Have a pref to show image ALT text as tooltip on mouseover"

Where is the <A ALT> info shown?

Marking as dupe of bug 74241. 

Reporter: To get the effect you desire, you can use the TITLE attribute, such as
<img title="title here"> or <a title="title here">

(of course, you still need the usual attributes such as src and href, as
appropriate)

-> XP Toolkit/Widgets, for parity with dupe

Thanks! I now understand the whole problem, and why it should be a matter of 
webpage hosts changing their code.
