Subject: Re: inlinegraphic going away... (Was Re: DOCBOOK: image with link)
/ Dan York <dyork@e-smith.com> was heard to say: | So for future compliance, the best way to write that would really be: | | <link linkend="mytarget"> | <inlinemediaobject> | <imageobject> | <imagedata fileref="mygraphic.gif" format="GIF"/> | </imageobject> | </inlinemediaobject> | </link> | | Which is *far* more verbose (thankfully macros can be created!). | | Do I read that correctly? Uh-huh. I almost said that myself. Of course, you *really* ought to use: <link linkend="mytarget"> <inlinemediaobject> <imageobject> <imagedata fileref="mygraphic.gif" format="GIF"/> </imageobject> <textobject> <phrase>Simple alt text description of mygraphic</phrase> </textobject> <textobject> <para>A longer description of the graphic, something that would be useful for readers using a visually constrained system.</para> <para>One such example of a visually constrained system is an audio device for in-car reading of online texts.</para> </textobject> </inlinemediaobject> </link> That at least makes it clear what all the extra typing is actually for :-) Be seeing you, norm -- Norman Walsh <ndw@nwalsh.com> | Labor, n.
