AccessibilityAltTextSet Method (LinkButton, String)

This method sets the "aria-label" attribute supported by most screen readers as text to be read aloud instead of the anchor's visible text. Screen readers read aloud any ALT text on images, but not on anchor tags. The .Net LinkButton is rendered as an anchor tag for which most screen readers will ignore the ALT text. http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria/states_and_properties#aria-label
