ALT="" problem in IE

[jebo100]

hi all,

new to html.
i have an image tag :
<img src="images/picture.jpg" alt="myimage"/ >
this go well in firefox.
in explorer, the alt value pops up whenever i point the mouse on the image.

is there a work around to get rid of the pop up in IE?

thanks!

Yes. IE decides that alt (used primarily for alternative content when image is not available) can be used as a tooltip as well. However, there is a tooltip attribute in HTML -- it is called title. Title will act as a tooltip in all browsers.

In IE, if you include both alt and title, title will act as a tooltip, overriding the alt value. So:

<img src="images/picture.jpg" alt="myimage" title="" />
