Note that that that is not *valid* XML.  Those tags are not nested;
actually they are <img src="img1.gif"></img>.  XSLT only supports
generating valid XML by definition.  if say

<xsl:output method="html"/>

it *might* (for some XSLT processors anyway, Saxon in my experience works
this way), produce HTML 4.0 (not XHTML), which may or may not conform to
the XML spec.
