Image rendering in "Preview in Notes" and "Preview in Web Browser"

Lets say we have a XPage with following code snippet which displays an image using javascript formula:
 
<xp:image id="image1"><xp:this.url><![CDATA[#{javascript:"actn005.gif"}]]></xp:this.url></xp:image> 
 
NOTE: actn005.gif is present in the current database as image resource. 
 
When I click on the "Preview in Notes" and get the source it displays something like this for Image:
 
<img id="view:_id1:image1" src="/xsp/Naveen/Experiments.nsf/xsp/actn005.gif" alt="" class="xspImage">
 
When I click on the "Preview in Web Browser" and get the source it displays something like this for Image:
 
<img id="view:_id1:image1" src="/Naveen/Experiments.nsf/actn005.gif" alt="" class="xspImage"> 
 
You can see that in case of "Preview in Notes" it adds xsp before and after the path of the database. My question is WHY? The image displays in both cases with no issues. But I have an XPage which renders image lets call it - XPage_Rendering_Image.xsp. Because of the XPage code:
 
<xp:image id="image1"><xp:this.url><![CDATA[#{javascript:"XPage_Rendering_Image.xsp"}]]></xp:this.url></xp:image> 
 
renders as: 
 
<img id="view:_id1:image1" src="/xsp/Naveen/Experiments.nsf/xsp/XPage_Rendering_Image.xsp" alt="" class="xspImage"> 
 
and then it FAILS!  Has anyone encountered this problem before? If yes then is there a solution for this?

 You can add an image by using a normal <img>-Tag:
 
<img src="#{javascript:'XPage_Rendering_Image.xsp'}" alt="" class="xspImage" />

 It worked!
 
But I guess this is a bug... This SHOULD work on Notes client. If we have to write our own tags for IMG then whats the use of XPages!!  :)
