Dynamic image tag in XSL?

Hi guys I've been trying to pass a parameter to a flash movie - a video player - inside a Livesite Component (TS 7.1 w Livesite). It seems impossible to dynamically create a string like this in XSL, so that it can use a dynamic video and a dynamic placeholder image. The video part works fine.

The XSL simply won't allow me to use the word "image" and barfs however devious I get. Can anyone suggest a way to do this?
Many thanks

Are you sure it's barfing on the word "image" - try reversing the parameters (put image first and file second) and see if it then barfs on the word "file" - if so - it's actually barfing on the '&' - which you might be able to encode as

- though that's just a guess.

We have had to use %26 a couple of times to get the &.

Hmm thanks for your responses, guys. I was getting an error along the lines of "image tag is not allowed here" or "must be enclosed in < >" or something but I returned to this with fresh eyes today and using a CDATA tag for the ampersand, it....just....worked!
