Why don't you do something like this:
<servimg:name.jpg:This is the alt text Buddy>
Then search for a regx something like <servimg*> (I am not sure of the
exact syntax).
Then parse the found tag, generate your <img tag and replace the original
tag with the generated tag.
I hope it gives you some good ideas.
