Alt Text Null Tag
Hey community! We used an outside vendor to help us audit our Rise 360 course for accessibility. We got dinged (a bunch) on decorative images. We followed Articulates advice of using the alt = ""...

Thanks for this information. I think my vendors issue is that the HTML is messy and is still announcing an image.
img alt="alt="""
If I was hand coding this it would be img alt ="" But Rise creates this code img alt="alt"" and that is messing with screen readers.

Oh I thought that was a typo in your message, if that is the actual code in your course, that would be a bug, obviously a mistake. Debugging my own flash cards I can't replicate that, would you be able to send a share link?
edit- just realized someone might be inserting the extra empty alt text inside where the alt text should go. If that is the case, just remove the alt text altogether, and it will show up as null/empty as below.
