XSL - Displaying an Image, Filename is in the XML

[bertieisaacm]

To Whom...
This is my very first example to get a feel for XSLT: inside of the xml as an elements value, I have a filename.

...
<filename>item1.jpg</filename>
...

inside of my xsl I have tried to simply display the image as follows.

...
<img src='<xsl:value-of select="filename" />' />
...

I have tried many other ways that seemed obvious, but I have had no luck...
Can somebody let me know how this seemingly simple task will work.
Merry Christmas AND/OR Happy Holidays.

<img>
    <xsl:attribute name="alt">
        <xsl:value-of select="alt-text"/>
    </xsl:attribute>
    <xsl:attribute name="src">
        <xsl:value-of select="filename"/>
    </xsl:attribute>    
</img>

Or something like that.

And a "Bah, Humbug!" to you.
