Hi we are using version 1.5.5.1 and keep pulling up an error when conducting a html verification (using w3c) and it keeps pulling up and error referring to a missing alt attribute as below

Error: An img element must have an alt attribute, except under certain conditions. For details, consult guidance on providing text alternatives for images. From line 445, column 989; to line 445, column 1099 rder:0;"> <img src="http://www.angliaclipperservices.com/image/cache/data/blades-logo-480x480r.jpg" style="width: 100%"/> </a>  I understand I need to add the alt attribute but when I look in the /catalog/view/theme/default/template/module/slideshow.tpl the attribute is already there am I missing something or looking in the wrong place?

Hello neil,

Thank you for reaching us!

The thread that you opened here seems to be related to a default OpenCart functionality, however, the current forum category should be used only for our product CodeManager.

On your question: It seems that this error might be showing if the alt tag is empty. Try putting up some content in the attribute and see if you still get this error.

Hope this helps!
