Incorrect display when an image is added to XML

This is my XML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="staff.xsl"?>
<st>        
    <employee>
        <name>
            <firstname>Clay</firstname>
            <lastname>Hansen</lastname>
        </name>

        <jobtitle>Professor</jobtitle>

        <department>Department: Communication and Marketing</department>
        <office>Office: CH-H 111</office>
        <phone>Phone: (847)257-1234</phone>
        <email>Email: [email protected]</email>
        <profile>
            <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
                <img src="C:\Users\username\Desktop\im.jpg" />  <!-- added closing tag by edit -->                                                  
            </html>
        </profile>
    </employee>
</st>

the image is a screenshot of my external xslt here is my xml and extrenal xsl code. When I add an image, it does not display my data in tabular form. It displays it like words in a sentence. How can I solve it?

This is because xsl:value-of returns the concatenated text nodes of a element's subtree with the markup removed (in your case there is none). You could copy the img node like this:

<xsl:for-each select="employee">
   <td>
       <xsl:copy-of select="profile//xhtml:img"></xsl:copy-of>
   </td>
</xsl:for-each>

Note, that you have to declare the xhtml namespace in your stylesheet to process the img nodes:

xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
