Alt tags, kaosweaver advanced random images

Hi. In Dreamweaver 8.0
I have installed Advanced Random Images from Kaosweaver: http://www.kaosweaver.com/extensions/details.php?id=5
I would like to do a Sequential Slide Show with 8 images. I would like to add alt tags onto each of these images, but the Kaosweaver will not let me do this with the Sequential Slide Show.
Does anyone know a way/trick to work around this?
Thank you.

You would have to direct these questions to Paul Davis, the author of kaosweaver stuff.
However, it sure looks to me as if it does this (snippet taken from the ARI demo on the kaosweaver site) -
// Advanced Random Images End
</script><img src="/assets/images/extdemo/intensa3/neptune_main.gif"
alt="The solid blue is wonderful" title="The solid blue is wonderful" width="300" height="300">

Using Kaosweaver advanced random images

Very much a beginner trying to improve a web site I built for
a vacation rental by adding a small slide show.
Using Dreamseaver 4, Kaosweaver advanced random immages.
Following directions but do not see any immages on home page,
get two icons in the upper left corner. In the Kaosweaver box, I am
not entering anything in link or target. All immages are in the
root directory for the web site I am building.
What am I doing wrong.

I don't know if this is THE problem - but it's A problem.
Your code has
absolute references to the files on your computer, rather
than relative
paths from the HTML file itself. Your code has this (several
times):
KW_ARI[KW_ARI.length]='/|/Documents and
Settings/HP_Administrator/My
Documents/Colorado/Web 06/homepage_deck_flash.jpg';
It should be:
KW_ARI[KW_ARI.length]='homepage_deck_flash.jpg';
or
KW_ARI[KW_ARI.length]='images/homepage_deck_flash.jpg';
or whatever the relative path to your images is.

Extension: Dynamic Images/Advance Random Images

Hi there,
I have downloaded 2 extensions: Dynamic Images or/and
Advanced Random Images (kaosweaver.com); it seems both are the same
and I have used both, works very well when I open the page on
Mozilla Firefox but not on Internet Explorer and strange thing is
when the page is open on IE everything disappears and the only
thing can be seen is the page background!!!
Any suggestion to fix the problem would be appreciated. Thank
you.

Babri1,
As always, start by contacting the extension author. I'm sure
that Paul
Davis will help you out.

Adding an Alt Tag actually MOVES the image?

I don't understand this at all. All I am doing is modifying
an alt tag on an image, and that image actually moves to a
different location on the page, both in the DESIGN VIEW inside DW
CS 3 and on the webpage itself when I save it to the server. I have
even gone in and told the system never to rewrite code on php
files, which this file is.
Is there some known issue I should know about, or a solution
to this problem? Very frustrating.
You can see what image Im referring to here -
folliclone.com/index1.php ... the "Get Started" image ... when i
change the alt from the existing "getstarted" to something else
like "hair loss guides", the image actually moves itself above the
"SEARCH image on the left, and screws up the entire alignment of
the page in doing so.

The problem is that you're using an XHTML doctype and XHTML
requires
that all tag and attributes names be lower case. If you
change the above
to:
<meta name="robots" content="noodp" />
<meta name="googlebot" content="noodp" />
I suspect you'll find it validates just fine.

The ampersand has special meaning in the source code of html.
It is the
beginning of a character entity. To properly display an
ampersand in the
rendered page, you need to use the & character
entity.

It's not a limitation of the validator. The validator is
doing exactly
what it's supposed to do. It's indicating invalid code. Made
up tags are
not valid, so they get flagged as such. Browsers are supposed
to ignore
any tag they don't understand, but it seems risky to me. What
is the
purpose of putting a tag that means nothing in the code?

Kaosweaver Random Images And CSS

I have searched all over and can't find an answer to this and have an e-mail in to the developer but figured I would ask here as well.
I am using Kaosweaver Advanced Random Images to rotate pics on a home page in the editable content area. The CSS style for the text in the content area is to line up on the left. When I insert the Kaosweaver command )even if I insert it with the cursor in the middle of the page the images line up on the left of the page. If I make a CSS rule that centers the text there is no way to apply it to the images I can tell.....except that if I go into the code and find the name of the image in the Kaosweaver code, highlight it and right click it lets me apply the CSS rule (even though I see no visible changes to the rule. Is this OK and will it end up causing problems on different browsers etc?
Is there another way to do it. I could see attaching a second style sheet just for that page with items centered as there will only be one other line of text on the page so that it won't matter if everything on that one page is centered but I don't want everything on all the pages centered.
Is there an easier way of accomplishing this. I was surprised in Googling this that noone else seems to have this problem....am I doing something wrong?
Thanks.

Dynamic Image Alt Tags

Hi,
I used dreamweaver, with php and server behaviors to bind
dynamic Image Alt Tags on dynamically generated images.
The dynamic image Alt Tags are showing in Internet Explorer
but not showing in Mozzila Firefox?
Does anyone know why or how to fix that?
Mathuman

They are attributes, not tags. And the alt attribute is not
supposed to
show in any browser unless the user has disabled images for
faster
downloads. If you want a 'tooltip' effect, then you would
have to use the
title attribute, not the alt attribute to do that, e.g.,
<img src="foo.jpg" alt="this will not display" title="this
will display" />

JSF InputCalendar tag image accessibility alt tag issue

When using an inputCalendar tag in JSF combined with the attribute popupButtonImageUrl, is it possible to set the ALT tag for the "popupButtonImageUrl image".
Is it also possible to set the ALT tags for the built in arrow images in the calendar control ?
Thanks for all your help.
Nando

MyFaces is just a standard JSF implementation, it doesn't have a calendar component, as said before.
Are you talking about Tomahawk? Well, they have a mailinglist over there at apache.org. Good luck.

Oops, good link, errors are basic, Every image needs an "alt"
attribute,
and "&" needs to be encoded as "&".

Safari and image ALT tags

I was testing out some html stuff last night involving images, I hover over a few images and to my absolute horror - realised that ALT tags weren't working.
Now I can't remember if they worked before I updated to 10.4.5 but I think they did as I distinctly remember seeing alt text as images were loading but I cannot be 100% sure.
The only changes I've made recently is 10.4.5 and installed flash player 8 plugin.
Someone please tell me that ALT tags do work in safari and that they are not working due to an update bug or setting or something???
Please!!
Thanks

Hello,
The current version of the service does not include the functionality to update a page title and description. For the images, the ALT text can be updated by opening the Advanced menu on the right and filling in the Tooltip field.

Cristinel

How do I add an alt tag to an image in Photoshop CS5 so that it is web ready?

How do I add an alt tag to an image in Photoshop CS5 so that it is web ready? My web developer wants me to send him all of my images with an alt-tag assigned so that he can automate the ADA accessibility of the website. I know when I choose to "Save for Web & Devices," I have the option of how much metadata I want to include to the levels of : None, Copyright, Copyright and Contact Info, All Except Camera Info, All. I don't want the audience to be able to view all of the metadata because a lot of it is sensitive with administrative notes. Any ideas?

To anyone else who may encounter this issue in the future, here is a work around:
File > File Info:
Sacrifice a metadata field in the description tab. I chose document title and description. Click OK.
File > Save for Web and Devices:
Choose to save All Metadata.
Leave things here on your end, and have the web-developer map the code to display only the appropriate metadata field.

Unable to Add Alt Tags to Placed Images

I am developing a flyer that will be distributed as a PDF, and our requirement is that it be "Section 508" compliant, that is, readable by a screen reader. I am trying to add alt tags to the images in order to meet this requirement, but when I go to Object -> Object Export Options and click on the Alt Text tab, theAlt Text Source pull-down menu is greyed out and does not allow me to do anything.
Does anyone have any idea of what is wrong here?

It's working for me in the current version of InDesign CC.

Large Image - ALT tags

How do I remove the automatic alt tag from my large product image?
I have replaced my images with you tube videos so now the alt tags are visible at all times.

I am guessing it is just an image and you have a custom field for the youtube link.
And what you are doing is putting the tag {tag_videoimage} like..
<img src="{tag_videoimage}" alt="Video" />
If you are you will have this issue because that tag will render its own image html wrapped in an ancor tag.
You will need to add _value to your tag..
{tag_videoimage_value}

508 "Alt tagging" of images in Captivate?

Hi,
I have a Capitvate files that's published as an exe which needs to be fully 508 Compliant. Does anyone have any ideas how to enable ALT tagging of images in an exe? Is that even possible? I thought that you could only do this for web content.
I selected auto-tag for images in Capitvate, though the Jaws screen reader didn't read the descriptions. How is the auto-tagging supposed to work exactly?
Thanks,
Dan

Can't find images in Iweb SEO Tools to add alt-tags!

Hi everyone. I'm trying to add alt-tags to some images on an iweb site with iweb SEO tools but I can't get it to open the containing folder. I have a gallery set up with 6 categories and, in each of these categories, there are a few images. I navigate to the folder that contains each image (it actually contains 4 - the full sized image and three thumnails for use elsewhere - all of them jpgs) but iweb SEO Tools is just not recognising that the folder contains any images at all! I navigate my way through my file structure and, when I finally get to the containing folder, it hits a dead end and will not find the contents of it. Any ideas!?
An example of my file structure is as follows:
RRF
- Gallery
- Pages
- Landscapes_files
- Media
- dintonpastures [containing folder for images]
- dintonpastures.jpg [that SEO refuses to see!]
Any help would be really appreciated!!

Photo templates are written in Javascript and cannot be accessed by iWeb SEO. Only images you create on a blank page or without using the photo template (HTML generated). They don't tell you that on Rage's website, in fact I find their advertising misleading in that they claim that you can alt tag "all" images in iWeb. But, it's free software, so you get what you pay for.
