Ive decided to look at an existing website we have and make it bobby
approved - its a bit of a pain as the site was built with tables for layout
etc, so im having to add summary="", which seems to pass the bobby test like
alt="" also does for spacer images.

For this example I'll just make the online test work - which to me isnt
really about accesible websites but will solve the problem at hand.
