A document with an image map: the alt attribute of the img element is empty; the alt attributes of the image map's area elements are also empty. Alternative text for areas in client-side image maps: img element with image map; empty alt attributes in image and image map areas Christophe.Strobbe@esat.kuleuven.be en Copyright BenToWeb 2004-2007 2005-08-29 accepted QA How to specify alternate text How to create client-side image maps Client-side image maps: the map and area elements

This test case is intended to fail because the image and the image map areas have no text alternatives.

 automatic

The image has no text description associated with it, but the text above it may be sufficient. However, none of the areas in the image map has a text description.

The img element has an empty alt attribute but the text above the image may be sufficient. However, since each of the area elements in the map element has an alt attribute, this case does not pass.

This test case is identical to sc1.1.1_l1_009, except that the alt attributes of the area elements are now empty.

This test case does not map to a WCAG 2.0 technique or failure.

(In Mozilla 1.7.3, SeaMonkey 1.1, Firefox 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0, the map does not work if the map element has only an id and no name attribute.)
