Firefox does not show "alt tag" popup. How can I make it show that?

    Firefox shows "title" tag but does not show "alt" tag of pictures.
    Internet Explorer and other browsers shows the alt tag.

    Is there a setting to enable that?

    Thanks,
    Justin

    To express it more exactly:

    When I hover the mouse over a picture,
    Internet Explorer shows that "alt tag" of that image,
    but Firefox does NOT show that.

    Both browsers shows the "title tag".

    Thanks for a solution to enable that.

    alt is understood by IE, use a matching title tag for Firefox.

    <a href="#" title="hello world"><img src="#" alt="hello world" /></a>
