The HTML 4.01 specs say:

------------------
3.2.2 Attributes

... Any number of (legal) attribute value pairs, separated by spaces, may 
appear in an element's start tag. ...
-------------------

So strictly-speaking, it looks like Zope is right, and the validator and 
Dreamweaver are wrong and should be fixed.
