Status Indicators and alt text.

Is there a way to have three different alt text for a 3 image button? Or does anyone know of a way to create a status indicator with three images? I see Lectora has the status indicators, but it only allows for 1 alt description my user is wanting to have each state to have it's own alt tag.
Thanks!

Hey there,
I would get around this by creating the status indicator manually and hiding/unhiding the appropriate image depending on a variable:
Ingredients
- Two variables: TopicStarted, TopicCompleted
- Three images: Ind_NotStarted, Ind_Incomplete, Ind_Complete
Programming
- When the user starts the topic, set TopicStarted to 1
- When the user completes the topic, set TopicCompleted to 1
- When the user returns to the table of contents page, show image:
- Ind_NotStarted if TopicStarted == 0
- Ind_Incomplete if TopicStarted == 1 and TopicCompleted == 0
- Ind_Complete if TopicCompleted == 1
- Hide whichever indicators are not relevant (if showing Ind_Complete, hide the other two)
You can then add alt tags for each of the three images. Screen readers won't read hidden elements so the above should work, just takes a little extra mucking around!
