How to Remove Small image Caption/Title/Alt?

Hi all,

I'm using Zen-Cart 1.3.9d, with IH2 and Zen Lightbox Mods.

When I move the mouse over my small images I get a caption of the product title.
How can I stop that from showing? It's kinda annoying when my product titles are long!!

Thank you for your help.

Best Regards,

Re: How to Remove Small image Caption/Title/Alt?

We have accessibility laws that require alt tags under many circumstances AND some people still have images turned off which means they would only see the alt tag. Not to mention those with impaired vision who have alt tag readers.

Also, from includes/functions/html_output.php> // alt is added to the img tag even if it is null to prevent browsers from outputting

// the image filename as defaultNow, if you wanna go messing with that....

I want the same and have succeeded after getting information how to edit on of the zen cart files. Unfortunately, I just can't remember which thread it was and now I need to get rid of the Alt Text on my site again after having installed an add-on that made the Alt text come back again :-(

Re: How to Remove Small image Caption/Title/Alt?

Hi
as a web developer, let me state that:
"The fewer moving parts in the web site, the better conversion rate"
that means that the image pop-up from image handlar2 is costing you money

It's not my invention i have countless states to prove it. (Google analytics, web-stat, other trackers, core metrics and live-person)

Rather disable the whole image_hover.js
