#8628: Pidgin doesn't handle src and alt attributes of <img> tag

       Status:  new             |   Component:  pidgin (gtk)
      Version:  2.5.4           |    Keywords:  gtkimhtml

--------------------------------+-------------------------------------------
 Pidgin only looks for 'id' attribute in <img> tag but completly ignores
 'alt' and 'src'. Such behaviour doesn't allow you to view any image than
 come for example in html part of xmpp message. You simply see absolutely
 nothing.
 I've made a small patch which handles alt and src attributes of img tag in
 following way: if there's no 'id' attribute, but there's 'src' attribute
 then show hyperlink: <a href='$src'>$alt-or-$src</a>.
 Patch applies to 2.5.5 perfectly.
