Thank you Andrew & Graeme!
I tried this and found that Opera displays the same text window but it now
contains both the title and the link address. It looks pretty ugly when
viewing a local page having long directory names. Msoft's IE seems to treat
the TITLE tag the same as the ALT tag.
Out of curiousity I ran a page through http://validator.w3.org It looks
like the ALT tag is required for strict 4.01.
The only invalid thing Front Page is doing with my very simple pages is
inserting a width attribute for table cells. (The validator told me I should
have a DOCTYPE specified also but that's my fault).
I guess I don't see enough benefit to adding a TITLE tag when the ALT tag is
required for compliance ... I'm going to be lazy and leave it as it is.
Thanks again for the education!!!

Hi Jeff,
I get the Olympus OM list as a digest so hopefully not too many people have
already answered your question. :o)
The trick to displaying your picture labels in every browser is to use the
title attribute as well as the alt attribute:
<img src="image.gif" alt="bla bla bla" title="bla bla bla">
Hope that helps!
With best wishes,
Graeme
