DocBook Element Reference > tfoot (db.cals.tfoot) - Pg. 446

tfoot There are two different forms of textobject , and it is not unreasonable for a media object to contain both of them. In the first form, the content of a textobject is simply a phrase . This form is a mecha- nism for providing a simple "alt text" for a media object. The phrase might be used, for example, as the value of the alt attribute on an HTML img , with the primary content of the image coming from one of the other objects in the media object. In the second form, the content of textobject is a longer, prose description. This form could be used when rendering to devices that are incapable of displaying any of the other alternatives. Processing expectations May be formatted inline or as a displayed block, depending on context. It might not be rendered at all, depending on its placement within a mediaobject or inlinemediaob ject and the constraints on the publishing system. For a more detailed description of the semantics involved, see mediaobject .
