Tooltip(ALT tag) ON/OFF
November 11, 2006 12:00 AM
The ALT attribute is not meant to be used as a tooltip and it can be argued that IE should not be displaying it in such a way... If you have learners that are using mozilla (for example) they will not be able to see it regardless.To be honest, I don't think that what you want to do is possible within the scope of browsers and their built-in functionality.The only way I can see you doing something even remotely similar is to create your own "tooltips" that you can show/hide using actions, when the learner moves their mouse over hotspots (e.g. buttons/images) on the page... and then introduce a condition on the action so that it only happens if the learner has elected for it to happen.
