A document with a client-side image map; the image represents a traffic light. The alt attribute of the img is empty, but the text immediately above the image identifies the image and conveys the same information. Alternative text for image in image map: text preceding image map describes the image Christophe.Strobbe@esat.kuleuven.be en Copyright BenToWeb 2004-2007 2005-08-25 draft How to specify alternate text How to create client-side image maps Client-side image maps: the map and area elements

The image has no text description associated with it, but the text above it may be sufficient.

The img element has an empty alt attribute but the text above the image may be sufficient.

(In Mozilla 1.7.3 and Firefox 1.0, the map does not work if the map element has only an id and no name attribute.)
