Description Unknown 2002-09-16 22:56:24 UTC
Version:           4.0 (using KDE 3.0.7 (KDE 3.1 beta1))
Installed from:    compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerelease)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.19-rc1

To reproduce:
With automatic image loading disabled, go to http://www.gnome.org/ The sidebar on the left is made up of images, but the alternative (ALT) text does not appear.

Expected behaviour:
The ALT text should be rendered.

This problem also occurs in mozilla, but w3m can successfully render the image text.

Still broken with RC3.

By chance, I figured out what is going on. If the text size is too big to 
fit, then Konqueror just fails to render the ALT text. It would be better 
to render the ALT text smaller (even if it goes below the mimimum font size 
setting)

Still broken in recent CVS on KDE_3_1_BRANCH 
Comment 4 Kai Lahmann 2003-06-14 03:44:39 UTC
still WFM here... Displaying the alt="" slammer than text surrounding it would break the HTML spec, 
as it has to be handled as inline-text. At least konq if one of the few browsers not displaying a 
useless "image not there"-icon! -> WONTFIX

I'm not convinced it will break the HTML spec. It will violate the minimum text
size setting which the user has configured, but the user will prefer to get
some text rather than no text. If ALT text is not rendered then the no images
mode is useless.

To reproduce it; have you tried increasing the minimum text size?

Works fine in 3.1-branch and HEAD 
Comment 7 cb-kde 2003-07-09 22:41:59 UTC
 
Sorry. This is NOT resolved in KDE_3_1_BRANCH (checkout from 1 or two days 
ago). I just tested this in a clean environment like this (the rm stage isn't 
necessary. I just wanted to prove it happens from a clean environment): 
 
################################### 
## STEPS TO REPRODUCE THIS BUG 
## 
 
# rm -Rf .kde .kderc # probably not necessary 
Xnest :1 -ac & 
DISPLAY=:1.0 startkde 
 
When the setup wizard appears. Click quit. 
Start konqueror 
Open the Settings->Configure Konqueror dialogue 
Go to behaviour 
Disable "automatically load images" 
enter http://www.gnome.org/ in the location bar 
See web page with ALT text rendered correctly 
Press and hold the +magnify icon (increase text size) and choose Font size +4 
See the ALT text disappear.

Sorry. Didn't reopen on the last update 
Comment 9 George Staikos 2003-07-09 23:06:12 UTC
Ok, you should not report two bugs in the same page, or at least be more clear 
what the bug is.  According to the original report it works.  I've adjusted 
accordingly.

Bug still occurs in CVS 20031030
Comment 12 Michael Jahn 2004-09-10 02:24:23 UTC
Worksforme with 3.3. (yes, my text size was all the way up).
Comment 13 cb-kde 2004-09-10 09:15:51 UTC
Still broken here. But I'm using -rc2, I'll upgrade and re-test.
