my img tag doesn't work in this xml string...

[rubychyld]

Here is what my image tag looks like in xml. I've tried using < > and &lt; &gt; and I still don't get my img tag to be displayed.

What is the right way to do this please?

There is a space before the img but when this has gone you get a normal xml collapsing thing.

The display element holds both data and child elements. Presumably you are not using a schema ot dtd?

Myself I hold img's as for example;

<menuitem pagename=&quot;HOME&quot; menugraphic=&quot;home.gif&quot; menutext=&quot;Home&quot;>
some other stuff
</menuitem>


and then simply transform into html using xsl

Can you explain further what you want to happen?

< img src=&quot;/applications/library/icons/o.gif&quot; />

Why do you have the &quot;/&quot; before &quot;applications&quot;? If applications is a sub-directory of the home of the current page, you do not need the &quot;/&quot;. You can just call it as &quot;applications/library....&quot;. If you have all of your images in one directory off of root, and all of your pages in another directory off of root, then you would need to call the image as &quot;../applications/...&quot;. You don't mention which parser you are using, or if this is being generated on the fly, but I still would look at your path to the image.
