Ray,
I don't think your code is the problem.
I think NN is truncating the content of the tag. Try adding the ' title '
attribute (also) and see if that provides a work around.
<.img src=""picture.jpg" width="foo" height="foo" alt="picture of foo"
title="a picture of foo in action">
Don't for get to use a DTD that supports ' title ' ;-).
HTH,
Fuzzy
