Thanks, Diane,

According to the stats, I don't have many users from Foxfire, and wonder why 
their browser does not pick up the alt tag information. The alt tag 
information was put there specifically for the blind and those who travel 
the net without displaying pictures. Dreammaker does not have a place to 
includ the title information - it will require (ugh) hand coding.

But, thanks for the heads-up!

Anne

Anne,

If you want people using the Firefox browser to view that information,
you'll need to add a __ title="name, rank, war" __ to the coding.
Firefox does not display alt="xxx" tag information.

Folks,

I am making a page on my educational site for Veteran's Day, and so far have
picture of three Veterans of Foreign Wars to post on the site. If anyone has
a picture of a family member or friend to be included on this site, please
send it to [log in to unmask]

I will display face pictures that are edited into 200 pixel circles, so I
need a picture that is at least wallet size of larger. I only need the rank,
name of serviceman, the year of the picture, and the name of the war they
served in. The information will be in the alt text of the picture rather
than on the page itself. To see how the page looks so far, go to
http://www.educationalsynthesis.org/holidays/veterans.html

Thanks for any and all submissions.

Anne
