Description Brion Vibber 2013-11-01 12:47:33 UTC
For accessibility and general helpfulness, the close and fullscreen buttons should have a title attribute which can be shown as a tooltip on hover or spoken when a screen reader is in use.

Comment 2 Tisza Gergő 2014-01-29 02:45:41 UTC
Screen readers generally prefer alt over title. Also, I'm not sure we want the tooltips to show up, they are ugly, and meaning the buttons (these two anyway) are quite obvious. But even if we want them, then we should set both alt and title.

Change 105459 abandoned by Gilles:
Title properties added to some buttons in lbinterface

Reason:
I think that now almost all the buttons in the interface have a tipsy message.
