If you are hoping for the little 'tooltip' mouse over images, then you
are using the wrong attribute it should be the 'title' not the 'alt'.
The 'alt' is for when that image is not displayed (for text browser or
when images are disable or missing on the server) Only old MSIE and the
ancient Netscape 4.x incorrectly use the 'alt'.
