Sorry Tonio, but you are wrong - go back and read the specification.
There is no "must only" in there. The definition is summed up thus:
"The alt attribute must be specified for the IMG and AREA elements."
So IE
is right in this case.
Also, the TITLE attribute has a completely different useage than for displaying text in place of images. In the case of IMG, the TITLE attribute is not supported.
HTH, (and it's my job to know this kind of thing
)
