DocBook/XSL Renders <img /> without the alt="..." attribute in XHTML mode (xsltproc/xalan)

[Shlomi Fish <shlomif@shlomifish.org>]

Hi all,

DocBook/XSL ( docbook-style-xsl-1.77.1-3.mga3 on Mageia Linux 3/Cauldron)
converts DocBook 5 with <mediaobject> with the <alt> tags to <img />s without
the alt="..." attribute. I am attaching here a sample document (compressed with
gzip) - it's in Hebrew, but you can view the XHTML fine.

Here are the command I use to render it and both give me <img-s without the
alt="..." attribute:

$ java org.apache.xalan.xslt.Process -IN hebrew-html-tutorial.xml -XSL
http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/xhtml/docbook.xsl -OUT
foo.html

$ xsltproc http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/xhtml/docbook.xsl
hebrew-html-tutorial.xml

I verified that they open files
from /usr/share/sgml/docbook/xsl-stylesheets-1.77.1/xhtml/html-rtf.xsl / etc.

Can anyone help? Am I doing something wrong? Is this a bug? Is there a
workaround?

Regards,

	Shlomi Fish
