Home.php Code Error - Out of the Box

[BravoMedia]

So I downloaded the Lifestyle theme yesterday and found an error; out of the box.
Opening the file in Dreamweaver as I always do, every thumbnail on "home.php" was highlighted in yellow indicating an error with a closing quote possibly missing.

Line 30 in the template looks like this (again... out of the box):

[img]<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, [/img]" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" />

the error is at the end of the string:

[/b]" />

changing this to "alt text" fixed the error:
If anyone else has found this error I hope this helps. If the template was supposed to be that way, maybe someone can chime in and explain why an error was detected in the code when it is written in its original format.

Cheers!
