Red Hat Issue Tracker GTNPORTAL-2983 0 Major Resolved Provision a text equivalent for every non-text element 2013-07-12 11:50:19 UTC

Description Dominik Pospisil 2013-05-07 08:41:54 UTC 
Toolbar menu items backgroud images do not have ALT text values assigned.

This violates 508 certification requirements: § 1194.22 (a) Text Equivalents
Provision a text equivalent for every non-text element shall be provided (e.g., via "alt", "LongDesc", or in element content).

Summary of changes: adding title="<description>" attribute in those <a> <div> elements that use background images in their style.
Comment 4 Lucas Ponce 2013-05-13 14:26:16 UTC 
According with XHTML reference:

http://xhtml.com/en/xhtml/reference/div/#div-attributes

"title" attribute can be used:

"Assistive technologies may make this information available to users as additional information about the element."

So, for <div> or <a> tags that uses images in the css background we will use this workaround to display an alternative text.
