Guideline 1 :
Provide equivalent alternatives to auditory and visual content

Checkpoint 1.1 - Result: not applicable

Provide a text equivalent for every non-text element (e.g., via "alt", "longdesc", or in element content). This includes: images, graphical representations of text (including symbols), image map regions, animations (e.g., animated GIFs), applets and programmatic objects, ascii art, frames, scripts, images used as list bullets, spacers, graphical buttons, sounds (played with or without user interaction), stand-alone audio files, audio tracks of video, and video. [Priority 1]

Images: No images used.

• Instructions:
  Each image must have an alt attribute with a text that provides the functionality of the image in the page. If this information is insufficient, for example because the image is complex, there should also be a longdesc attribute specifying a link to a detailed description of the image. In such cases it is useful to provide a textual link to the same information (often using "D" as the text of the link, with a title attribute describing the role of the link.
