- Description
In HTML images alt= is used for screen readers.
Tiki img plugin should accept "title" and "desc" for alt= in the same way it does for Caption and title=. It may look like this was the intention in the plugin code, but the Alt field in the form only uses input as string value (literal).
Plugin code should be fixed to allow using image Title or Description from File Gallery, not only manual input.To reproduce: upload an image to the Gallery, define Title and Description. Place it on a wiki page and in the plugin dialog type desc or title for both Caption and Alternate Text.
Result: in HTML code, title= attribute and the div below will show correct DB values from Gallery, but alt= only translates to alt=desc- Solution
