When using IE8 and default skin the onmouseover doesn't work for any icons except move to trash.

It seems that the alt tag behave different in IE8 and title should be used.
IE8 and Alt tags for Images

Move to trash only works because of a rcmail.add_label.
Could I add rcmail.add_label for the rest of the icons also?

I also notice a difference when using IE or another browsers. Other browsers use the title-tag, where IE uses the alt-tag.

This should always be the title-tag.

How do I change the code to process title tags instead of alt tags?

In the file ./program/include/rcube_template.php

Search for :

Code: [Select]
       // set title to alt attribute for IE browsers

And remove the line:

Code: [Select]

            unset($attrib['title']);

This has been fixed in r2548, and the first stable release with this fix will be 0.3-stable.

Application to automatically add title attributes

I found this thread while looking for a solution to missing tooltips in IE8 and Firefox.

In case other Web designers also stumble on this page while looking for a missing tooltip solution, there is a Windows application called Alt&Title that automatically adds alt and title attributes to applicable HTML tags.

Here is the Web page that promotes it...

Alt&Title - Add alt and title attributes to your HTML tags

$19.99 is a lot of money for some minor adjustments. Besides alt and title attributes are two different things.
