The ALT tags for images in the source of a XUL IFRAME do not show up at all.
Attached file Test HTML source code.

Sorry, long day... More info for you: Linux build #2001061721. See test files for implementation.
Well, ALT tags for IMG in HTML don't show a tooltip either, but that is by design, methinks. In the HTML 4 spec, the ALT attribute is for use when the image cannot be displayed. The TITLE attribute is for "advisory information about the element" which user agents may "display ... as a 'tool tip'". (Correct, Ian?) http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/global.html#adef-title http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/objects.html#adef-alt You example works if I set 'TITLE="foo bar baz"', in which case the HTML contents fo the XUL iframe will show a tooltip. Marking 'not a bug' a.k.a INVALID.
