Drupal Image Oddity

Typically when I setup a page with images I like to use a style like:

      <img class="badge"
           src="images/badges/npp.logo.80x15.png"
           alt="Notepad++" />

Using multiple lines makes it easier to see all that is happening with the image.

Apparently this confuses Drupal in some way.  Drupal would not render the placeholder for the image until all of the attributes for the <img> tag were placed on the same line.

      <img class="badge" src="images/badges/npp.logo.80x15.png" alt="Notepad++" />
