It would only be required if an image is added. The use case is a general one where you need to produce an accessible site and all images must have alt text. I've had a poke around the codebase but it doesn't seem possible. It would be good to know if this is possible? if anyone else has the requirment Cheers Bruce My Blog: http://www.stuffandcontent.com/ Follow me on twitter: http://twitter.com/brucemorrison Consolidated eZ Publish Feed : http://friendfeed.com/rooms/ez-publish

Hi all

I'm wondering if it's possible to make the "Alternative image text" component of the eZImage datatype a required field. It would only be required if an image is added.

The use case is a general one where you need to produce an accessible site and all images must have alt text.

I've had a poke around the codebase but it doesn't seem possible.

It would be good to know

if this is possible?
if anyone else has the requirment

Cheers
