Hello ...
Bob Allison writes:
... you can use ASCII art in ALT tags, so that people
using text based can see an ASCII pic where people using
graphical browsers see a GIF.
I still don't see that this works, if the Art is multi-line. After
seeing this Post, I browsed BOBAWORLD again (with Image Auto-Loading off);
once again, each intended multi-line ALT appeared as a single, LONG, Line
of Text.
Am I the only one that has this trouble? Could it be that my Browser
(Netscape 1.1N) isn't quite capable of imitating a Text-Based one?
Regards,
Don
