Accessible Alt-Tag

Hi,

can you answer this question for me? Is it sufficient for an accessible website to simply include the alt tag for a photo, or should the title tag be included as well?

Thanks for the help.

    Hi,

    I am not an accessibility expert, but from what I found on the internet, including the alt attribute for images is essential, but including the title attribute is not required, and often not recommended as a substitute for alt.

    Anyway, if you want to be absolutely sure I suggest contacting some accessibilty expert.


    Best regards
