What I'm trying to do here is add a bbcode that will allow an alt tag for better SEO search for the images posted by my members. From what I could find was to make a bbcode with the Alt tag and found the information for this in the first post.

What I'm after here is to have an Alt Tag to the image url that was posted.

Click on the image button and place between the tags [IMG=Hello World]^[/IMG]

Here is what I get
[IMG=Hello World]^[IMG]httx://www.image-source.com/image.jpg][/IMG]^[/IMG]

If I remove the ^[IMG] from the second line I can preview the image and see the Alt tag text Hello World.

But what I'm looking for is the proper way to get this to work without having to go into the mesage and remove those [IMG].

I think that I'm missing something in the code, or I'm going about this in the wrong way.

I know that one can edit the class_bbcode.php file and some templates to do this, but I have tried searching for the information and have come up blank thus far and decided to go this route. Any help to directing me in the right direction would be a great help.

Thanks very much
