## Rails 4.0.0 (unreleased) ##
-* Fix `image_alt` method to work with underscored or hyphenated file names.
- Currently, underscored filenames become
- `<img alt="A_long_file_name_with_underscores"` in HTML, which is
- poor for accessibility; Apple's VoiceOver Utility pronounces
- each underscore. "A_long_file_name" thus becomes "A underscore
- long underscore file underscore name." This patch makes underscored
- or hyphenated file names (both of which are very popular naming
- conventions) read more naturally in screen readers by converting
- both hyphens and underscores to spaces.
+* Change `image_alt` method to replace underscores/hyphens to spaces in filenames.
- Example:
- # current implementation
- image_tag('underscored_file_name.png')
- #=> <img alt="Underscored_file_name" src="/assets/underscored_file_name.png" />
+ Previously, underscored filenames became `alt="A_long_file_name_with_underscores"`
+ in HTML, which is poor for accessibility. For instance, Apple's VoiceOver Utility
+ pronounces each underscore. `A_long_file_name` thus would be read as `A underscore
+ long underscore file underscore name.` Now underscored or hyphenated filenames
+ (both of which are very popular naming conventions) read more naturally in
+ screen readers by converting both hyphens and underscores to spaces.
- # this patch
+ Before:
+ image_tag('underscored_file_name.png')
+ # => <img alt="Underscored_file_name" src="/assets/underscored_file_name.png" />
+
+ After:
image_tag('underscored_file_name.png')
- #=> <img alt="Underscored file name" src="/assets/underscored_file_name.png" />
+ # => <img alt="Underscored file name" src="/assets/underscored_file_name.png" />
