html - Can I style an image's ALT text with CSS?

Question

I have a dark blue page and when the image is loading (or missing) the ALT text is black and difficult to read (in FF).

Could I style it (with CSS) to be white?

Answer 1

Setting the img tag color works

img {color:#fff}

body {background:#000022}
img {color:#fff}

<img src="http://badsrc.com/blah" alt="BLAH BLAH BLAH" />
