ALT Text for HTML Link text

Excuse me Please:

I seek to add ALT Text on a selection of text within an HTML document, that, as with ALT Text on Images, would present text on mouse-over. Inserting/Applying Hyperlink to selected text does NOT provide “Alternative Text” field for said selected text, yet I have seen screenshots that “Alternative Text” field is available for Images. Is there a version difference I need to address where this field is present for Text as well? currently using LibreOffice 4.2.3.3

I am not sure if I correctly or fully understand your question but…

The HTML alt attribute is only applicable to images.
If you are talking about the explanatory text that appears when you hover over a passage of text then you need to use the HTML title attribute.

A hyperlink (HTML <a> tag) does not apply in either of the above cases.

As an aside, LO 4.2.3.3 is very old. The latest stable version is 6.3.6 available here.

Hi BigRAI, I’m also searching for a trick or an extension that make posssible add the “title” attribute to a link. I have LO 7: do you know if there is something?
