95694 - ALT text not displayed as tooltip

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 25537

(SeaMonkey :: UI Design, defect)

Description

[osavill]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.3+) Gecko/20010814
BuildID:    20010814407

I am submitting this as a bug for the following reason.

The image ALT text popping up as a 'tooltip' when the mouse is over an image has
become such a de-facto standard that some sites become really quite difficult to
navigate without this facility.

I know it's not in the standards, but there are times when the common standard
has to be implemented over and above the real standard.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to a site
2.Hover the mouse over an image
3.Look - no 'tooltip' text

Expected Results:  Nice, often very helpfull text regarding the image and any
actions it may invoke.
