[Zope] Attributes

This should be simplicity itself but I've read and re-read what the 
Zope book has to say on this and I don't understand...

<img src="../images/ldmlMenu_01.png" width="170" height="2" border="0" 
tal:attributes="src here/images/ldmlMenu_01.png">

should, if my understanding is correct, replace the src attribute for 
the image with the path defined by the tal:attributes statement. My 
understanding is wrong because I get:

<img src="&lt;img 
src=&quot;http://127.0.0.1:8080/ldml/images/ldmlMenu_01.png&quot; 
alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; height=&quot;2&quot; 
width=&quot;170&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;" width="170" 
height="2" border="0">

To put this in context, this snippet is contained in a format file 
which is included in a number of other files. Not knowing better I've 
used the construct:

<div id="menuMain" tal:replace="structure here/main_menu">
...placeholder code...
</div>

to include this although I understand that I should use Macros to 
include this. I'll change this shortly.

It looks as if...

No I wont embarrass myself further. Would someone explain what's going 
on here and where my understanding is wrong.

TIA
