When I open the same website ( https://allaboutroboticsurgery.com ) in IE the ALT text and image links I have created work just fine. How can I fix this problem?

Hi cb123,

not sure if I am addressing this issue correctly but if you are trying visualize the alternative text (alt="") on "mouse over" even if the image gets loaded, try to add title tag. On the below example taken from source of your site:

img width="640" border="0" height="231" style="" alt="AVRA Surgical Robotics" title="AVRA Surgical Robotics" src="images/640_ASR_Logo_Large_AVRA_3.jpg"

  • btw your site is probably not supporting https:// thus referring to http://

Hi marjar

Thank you for your reply, I see now that the URL in IE has http// but in firefox (like this URL https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/989394?) shows as https// why is that? and this must be why my ALT and external links in my images do not work in Firefox. However my internal links do work except for the ALT. Is there a way or a plugin for Firefox that I can instal to make my site compatible to https// ?
