ALT Caption in Images

Hi, everyone! Hope you're enjoying a brilliant day!

I would like to ask if there's a possibility to use the ALT caption for images by using BBCode. This, as HTML doesn't work in the custom profile fields in my forum.

I've read in some forums it works this way:
[img alt="Image text"] http://www.website.net/image.jpg [/img]

It doesn't work in mine, though.

I'd appreciate your help!
Thank you very much!

Hi! Can you provide a link to your try, please?

Hello, Gassy! How are you?
My forum's English4Fun. It's a PHPBB3 forum and I'm working with text zone profile fields.

Thank you for your help!

Hi again AnaMi! Well, please give me a link to a topic in that you have tried this code?

Anyway, this code doesn't work. Works only attributes on tables in bbcode. The example below doesn't work:

Code:

[img alt="text"]image[/img]

But this works:

Code:

[td colspan="3"]text[/td]

Thank you, Gassy! You're really kind!
I want to use the caption for the images in one of the custom profile fields which is displayed in the profile as well as the messages. If you go to this link, for instance, you'll see the user Misor has a profile field with an image. The idea is to add a caption to that picture.

Do you talk about hover effect to the images? Admin, Colombia?

No, it isn't. It's on the E4F! Gift field.

Ok, try to add in javascript management:

Code:

jQuery(document).ready(function() {
    jQuery('img').each(function() {
        if(jQuery(this).attr('src') == 'LINKTOIMAGE') jQuery(this).attr('alt', 'ALTTEXT');
    });
})

Thank you, Gassy!
After creating this Javascript code, can I use HTML or the ALT property for the BBCode instead?

If you use the image list profile field, then just add your text in "Alternate text" (:

I see! Thank you, Gangstar!

Just one more question: once I add this JavaScript code, how can I use BBCodes with the Alt caption in a post?

Thank you for your massive help, guys!

So, I think you can activate HTML and use alt attribute. You cannot with bbcode because in HTML a image structure code is:

Code:

<img src="LINK" alt="TEXT" title="TEXT" />

but in bbcode is otherwise:

Code:

[img]LINK[/img]

So, using a example:

Now see in Chrome with Inspect element, or with Mozilla Firefox how it looks as HTML.

Code:

<img src="http://illiweb.com/fa/fdf/parchemin.png" alt="" class="" style="display:inline">

Thank you very much, Gassy!
HTML has always worked in my forum, even with the ALT caption code. My hope was to find a way to use the ALT caption in a custom profile field (text zone), which only accepts BBCode so far. Sadly, it doesn't work.

Anyway, I really thank you for your priceless help and support! You're all second to none!!

Thank you, and glad I could help!
