[Accessibility_sig] PHP Accessibility

Can you post the css for the .alt class as well? This looks like a
reasonable strategy on the face of it, maybe .alt is where the problem
is? If they are using display:none, it would start to explain Jaws'
behavior.

Btw, PHP is a red-herring in this case. It's a very flexible
server-side language and has no real bearing on the issue. If they are
using a particular module or PHP-based products that might be a
constraint.
