What do you mean by disable it? It is an html error to not have an alt tag. You can set it to empty though.

alt tags are used on images as far as I know such as the code below would describe

 

<IMG SRC="images/frontpage_02.gif" ALT="GameProdigy" width="81" height="62"><A HREF="http://www.signature-series.net/catalog/index.php"

 

Basically you don't have to remove the ALT you just remove the text inside the " ". I personally don't recommend this, first reason because search engines do not read images so if your main page has a big banner with your company name on it and a button that says come shop, the search engine won't index them, however with the ALT tag on the banner "The Piano Store" (made that up) and ALT over your shopping button "Come Shop" it will read that.

 

Second reason if you have an accessibility policy on your site, then you can just throw in the trash cause you just hindered blind people from being able to use their text readers to navigate your site.

 

Hope that enlightens you.
