HTML ALT and title attributes -how to specify tooltip

I had a discussion about terminology used to specify tooltip.

That what I found:

ALT="..."--Specifies a text string to be displayed on browsers that do not support inline images.(from http://www.htmlgoodies.com/beyond/reference/article.php/3472851 )

Alt text is an alternative, not a tooltip- see http://www.456bereastreet.com/archive/200604/alt_text_is_an_alternative_not_a_tooltip/.

The alt and title attributes- see http://www.456bereastreet.com/archive/200412/the_alt_and_title_attributes/
