Inquiry for the internet collective.
I have a blog via blogger dot com. I include images on said blog. I very VERY vaguely dabble in html coding to adjust a few things in the formatting. I would love to include alt text or some other image describer so that my blog can be more accessible to those with screen readers or lower connection speeds.
Sample coding for an image in my blog posts looks like this (minus the space between the angle brackets):
< table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" > < tbody > < tr > < td style="text-align:center;" > < a href="[image location url.png]" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" > < img border="0" data-original-height="398" data-original-width="398" height="320" src="[same image location url as before.png]" width="320" / > < /a > < /td > < /tr > < tr > < td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">[image caption] < /td > < /tr > < /tbody > < /table >
My Google Fu has failed me, and I cannot sort out any way to code in the alt text. I've tried using the normal html coding I've found - including the code alt="[image description]" within the < img > code - but it doesn't actually show up when I publish my blog.
Does anyone know how I can get alt text to work? Or can you suggest an alternative option?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
