Hello WHATWG,
What do you think about this:
Q: How would it be possible to integrate captions for images using html?
A: 1. Using something similar to <caption> element. Extra markup needed
though.
2. Using an attribute to display it: <img src="/path/chart.jpg"
alt="Amount of pregnant rats in year 2007" caption="caption" />.
This would show the caption below the image by default (visual style
and position done by css), its source would be the alt attribute (to avoid
duplicate content). I don't know if that's possible though.
If there have been made any researches or suggestions already, please let
me know, thank you.
