The following code will not display a tooltip for it's image (supplied by the alt tag in) where Netscape 4.7 and IE 5.5 do: <html> <head> <title>Testing to see if the tooltips work</title> </head> <body> <img src= "file://C:/image18.gif" height="300" width="200" alt="test1"> </body> </html> I noticed this in the images on http://www.bbc.co.uk/ also. Regards, Mike Harris PS. I'm using Tim murphy's email at the moment hence the address
I believe this is INVALID. Tooltips work only using TITLE= attributes within an <img SRC=> tag. See http://people.netscape.com/stephend for an example.
BTW, you can even get tooltips on links, see http://www.mozilla.org/mailnews/win_performance_results.html for an example of that.

Alt text should not be displayed as tooltips. See bug 25537 (and many others) for the reason why this is invalid. Bug 74241 discusses having a pref for displaying Alt tags as a tooltip.
