The <%...%> confuses the validator.  It's unrelated to
your problem, but the error would be different if you
put the alt= before the src= as in

<img alt="Top bannner"
 src=<%response.write"images/topBanner1left.gif"%> />

To fix it get rid of the <%...%> - you can only validate
the output after this <%...%> was replaced, e.g.

<img alt="Top bannner" src="images/topBanner1left.gif" />

Your "raw" page with <%...%> is no valid XHTML.  Bye
