    I’m using a weblog to upload an image to my server.  I’m also populating a custom field (called postimage) with the HTML tag used to display the image

    I’m looking to have the alt attribute be the same as the post’s title.  However when I use alt=”{title}” I can’t seem to get the result I want.  The output from my template is alt=”{title}”. Is there any way to do this other than hard coding the img tag in my template?

    Cliff, as you mentioned, {title} isn’t parsed. It might be worthwhile to see if you can find a feature request or to make one for that functionality.
