This task of (more or less) satisfying the absurd ADA mandate has two main parts.
The first part was LONG in quantity and simple in concept. I examined 2000 images and wrote an alt-text description for each. It took exactly one month of fulltime drudgery.
The second part is much shorter in quantity but much harder in concept. Modify the html and javascript so the screen reader will automatically read the image description first, then the accompanying text, as soon as the page is turned. This “should” be easy, and there are lots of generally similar online examples, but so far none of the examples work.
It’s a classic Sherlock problem. After you’ve eliminated all the possible solutions, the impossible one will be correct.
What Sherlock really meant: A problem BECOMES tricky when you’ve crossed off some of the real solutions in advance. If you didn’t pre-dismiss the “impossible” answers, the problem wouldn’t be nearly as hard.
