[TYPO3-english] Img tag mapped/generated by TV not closing correctly

[Christopher Torgalson]

Hi,

<snip>

>> If the code in your message is an exact copy, then the problem originates with the fact that there's no space between the closing quote in the border attribute ant the beginning of the alt attribute (by the way, the mere existence of a border attribute in the image can cause your page to fail validation if you're using  xhtml strict). Fix that problem, and I'll bet you fix the other problem too.

Looking at your HTML, it seems that you're already using GIFBUILDER to
create the image (and therefore, unless you're just returning the url
to the image with the IMG_RESOURCE cObject you're already using the
IMAGE cObject).

In any case, you've shown us the output, but since this is not any
TYPO3 behaviour I've ever encountered, the only way anyone's going to
be able to help is if you show us the TS too.
