Diagnoses
Here is how tools diagnose the image alt long
issue for HTML element 326 of the CVS page.
- <p>Image text alternatives are announced by screen readers as a single run-on sentence; listeners must listen to the entire alt a second time if they miss something. If this cannot be reworded to something succinct, it is better to use the alt to reference a <em>visible</em> <a href="https://www.w3.org/WAI/tutorials/images/complex/" title="Opens in new tab" target="_blank">text alternative for complex images</a>. For example:</p> <ul><li>"Event poster; details follow in caption"</li> <li>"Chart showing our issues going to zero; details follow in table"</li></ul> This image's alt text is: <em>On a counter top stand a bottle of OGX peptide scalp serum, a bottle of OLAY ultra moisture hydrant lotion and a bottle of Perfect Scents Moonlit Poppies perfume in a row.</em>
