Separate Alt and Title data in gallery or implement explicit sort field #432

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

As currently implemented the text for the <img> Alt attribute and Title 
attribute is the same.  Conventional HTML usage is for Alt to provide alternate 
information when the image cannot be displayed, and for Title to contain 
information about the image, which is typically used as tooltip text.

If these attributes were distinct and separate then, for instance, Alt could be 
used to order images in a gallery but the Title (tooltip) text could be 
descriptive rather than lexical.  But this is still kludge.

The ability to create an explicit sort order is the objective.  Changing image 
IDs does not seem practical.  If a separate sort field were available then it 
could be used for sorting and Alt and Title could be used as intended.

I also think that TITLE and ALT attribute should be seperated in NextGen Gallery
