Topic: image alt tags

Hi

I was wondering if anyone knows how to embed image alt tags to images in an existing
gallery.

I'd like my images to come up on web browser sites such as google images when certain key words
are (like my name) searched. I can add alt tags to images that exist as an embedded image on a web page (through Dreamweaver) however if the images are part of an embedded gallery such as SimpleViewer I can't do it.

Thanks

Frank

Re: image alt tags

Flash does not support alt tags for it's content, however the way swfobject works is it replaces all of the content in the div with flash. So if you place your alt data in the div the search engines will see it, but your users will see the flash which will overwrite the div content.
