Introduction¶
What does it do?¶
This extension adds 2 new fields to the Image and Text/w Image Elements. These fields called alttext and titletext are used to add alt-tags and/or title-tags to the shown images.
<img src=”xyz.gif” alt=”This is the Alttext” title=”This is the Titletext”>
The field is splitted with chr(10) ( carrige return ) by default, but this can be changed with a constant.
Each line of the alttext-field go's to the corresponding image from the image-source field.
Users manual¶
Install the Extension with the extension manager. After that you have the new field in the image and text/w image element.
Insert the alttext in the new element and enjoy.
You can change the constant Alttext under Images with the constant editor to change the settings. The alttext is splitted with chr(10) by default. If you want the whole field to all images without beeing splitted, change the constant
dmc_imageAlttext.alttextSplit to 0.
If you want to change the split-token you can change the constant
dmc_imageAlttext.alttextSplitToken to the value you want.
Adminstration¶
The extension extends the basic tslib_cObj class.
In Typo3.5 the function IMGTEXT. If these function is changed in the next releases the extension must be changed too.
In Typo3.6 the function getAltParam.

Known-Problems¶
There can be only one extensions that extends the tslib_cObj class !
At the moment there are popular extensions like:
- sl_css_imgtext
- dmc_image_alttext
- tableswithoutp
There is no solution for using them together at the moment. Only a workaround.
Copy the code ( for the cObj , tslib_content file ) of the needed extensions together to one new file and change the ext_localconf of the other ones not to overwrite the cObj. Very bad :-(
