I think the problem is the way lynx handles ALT="" tags, e.g.,

   <IMG SRC="WHATEVER" ALT="">

In my opinion, when this occurs, lynx should regard this as meaning:

   <IMG SRC="WHATEVER" ALT="WHATEVER">
<<<<

We already argued this point just a few weeks back. If there is an empty
ALT attribute, it should be honored! I for one use them regularly to tailor
the Lynx view of a page for best results. If you want to see what's there,
use the "show images" toggle ('*').
