Alternate text for table and image accessibility - textobject, alt, summary?

[JaniceM]

I'm brand new to DocBook, and am reviewing the current source files for the doc set at my new job.

Is there a recommendation for providing alternate text for accessibility?

The current source files have textobject for images and nothing for tables.

Is the alt element better than textobject?

For tables, should I use alt or summary?

Thanks,

Janice

Hello Janice,

from my side I do not have any recommandation about this topic, you should better as to the docbook lists (here it is the list for the tool taking docbook source files and generates various file outputs): http://docbook.sourceforge.net/

anyway maybe some users of this mailing list may reply.

Regards,

Cedric
