possibly a bug regarding IMG ALT attributes?

Hi Dave,

I am calling Tidy 13Jan2000 from a (perl) script with some command line 
options (line breaks added for readability) as follows:

"tidy13jan00 -f /dev/null -quiet -latin1
--wrap 0
--wrap-attributes no
--indent auto
--tidy-mark no
--uppercase-tags yes
--uppercase-attributes yes
--alt-text ''
--doctype '-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN'"

The to-be-parsed HTML code comes via STDIN.

If the input is following line:
<IMG WIDTH=60 HEIGHT=1 BORDER=0 ALT="" SRC="/images/blank.gif">

Tidy's output (HTML Document structure is stripped) looks like this:
<IMG WIDTH="60" HEIGHT="1" BORDER="0" ALT="SRC=/images/blank.gif">


Of course that cannot be wanted, I just have no idea (yet) what causes this 
problem. If anybody could point me into the right direction, I'd greatly 
appreciate this.
