Syntax
Parameter Values
- ALTDESC
-
With ODS HTML output,
by default the entire output has an HTML ALT tag that specifies which
procedure was used, and which variables were plotted. Or, if you
have specified text using the DESCRIPTION= option, then that value
is used for the HTML ALT tag rather than the default ALT tag (many
users add a textual description of the graph using this technique,
to help the vision-impaired, and to help meet 508-compliance).
If you prefer not to
have an ALT tag for the entire graph, you can suppress it by specifying
DESCRIPTION=" " (which might be more convenient on a graph by graph
basis) or by using GOPTIONS NOALTDESC (which might be more convenient
for turning them off for all graphs, such as putting this in your
AUTOEXEC.BAT).
- NOALTDESC
-
toggles off the ALTDESC
option.
