Next, when I enable the loading of images, reload the page -- the images are displayed. But after disabling the option again, the ALT text is lost upon next reload, an all subsequently loaded pages are missing it -- which makes the navigation quite uncomfortable. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Disable the "Load images" option, close and restart Firefox 2. Load a page, enable the "Load images" option, reload the page 3. Disable "Load images" option, reload the page, check for ALT text Actual Results: ALT text missing where it was before Expected Results: See the ALT attribute text
