# with firefox (and other standards compliant browsers)
text in the alt attribute is displayed while the picture is downloaded or if the picture fails to load (redex) or if you have loading pictures turned off in your preferences

text in the title attribute is displayed as a tooltip when you hover over the picture.

P.s. In IE, title works in the same way as alt so it can be used to create a tooltip that works in all browsers
