Form inputs and images.....

Hi,
I'm stuck on this problem which only occurs in netscape browsers but it
concerns displaying alternate text when
you put the mouse over an image. The image I have is an input to a form.
On IE when the mouse is run
over the image the ALT text is shown however this does not work on Netscape.
Is this just a browser issue
or is it a problem with my code?

Here is the code I'm using.....

<INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME="pageName" VALUE="page2.html">
<INPUT TYPE="image" VALUE="submit" SRC="/images/store/headers/image.gif"
ALT="Click Here to Update Information" BORDER=0>


Both these inputs are placed between form tags..

An help at all would be appreciated, please feel free to email me any suggestions.


Thanks a million.

Joe

That's not what the ALT is for, read the article on the use of ALT text in
images at <http://www.htmlhelp.com/feature/art3.htm>.
The TITLE attribute is more appropriate here, but NS 4.x doesn't support
that. The only way I know is to use DHTML generated tooltips, see <http://tech.irt.org/articles/js202/index.htm>.
