This example illustrates the loss of image alt text during microformats parsing.

<div class="h-entry"> <p class="p-name e-content">Hello World</p> <img class="u-photo" src="globe.gif" alt="spinning globe animation"> </div>

 { "type": [ "h-entry" ], "properties": { "name": [ "Hello World" ], "photo": [ "http://example.com/globe.gif" ], "content": [ { "html": "Hello World", "value": "Hello World" } ] } }

This will occur any time the <img> tag appears outside of other microformats properties.

This means it's impossible for a consumer of the parsed h-entry to reconstruct a representation of the post that includes the alt text.

This is blocking w3c/Micropub#34
