Can someone give me the proper syntax for the alt id tag.
I was told that there is an alt id tag for accessable web sites. Searched W3 and I could only find info on the alt tag and not the alt id.

Tthere is no such thing as an "alt id" tag. There are two seperate attributes, alt (which provides alternative content in case a media file cannot be displayed) and id (which allows CSS and scripts to reference individual tags).
Alt - W3C Standard (http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/objects.html#adef-alt)
Alt - useful article (http://ppewww.ph.gla.ac.uk/~flavell/alt/alt-text.html)
ID - W3C Standard (http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/global.html#adef-id)

I am sure while reading about you will come accross it , but felt like mentioning it here.
Make sure that you use i(in most cases) alt combination with title attribute.
Adams link above to w3c will have detailed description of title as well
